Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Félix Bernaldo took the kick off in the first half of the match. In the 7th minute, Gabriel Hernando hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Edmundo Borica took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Valiente Ocon, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 18 minutes into the game, Valiente Ocon cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-2. Edmundo Borica was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Peter Moraza recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 22nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After 25 minutes of play, CD Sinchay's Gabriel Hernando made it 0-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Valiente Ocon made a kick off. The CD Sinchay fans' excitement grew in the 51st match minute when CD Sinchay's Valiente Ocon looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal.

Valiente Ocon was extremely unlucky when he, in the 55th minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. In the 62nd minute Valiente Ocon shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Edmundo Borica saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. A collision led to CD Sinchay getting a freekick after 70 minutes play. Xzaiver Abaunza hit a great ball. Peter Moraza struck a weak shot in the 73rd minute. Edmundo Borica didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for CD Sinchay.

He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Checa reached it. In the 95thth minute of the game José Nanclares who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but CD Sinchay's Angulo Mendiola was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball.
