After 64 minutes of play Petroquímica's Epifanio Eliazar was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. Generoso Lordi was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 66th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. 68 minutes into the match, Chasicó's Joaquin Fernandez sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Artemio Panfilo narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Chasicó's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Generoso Lordi in the 72nd minute.

If Ariel Frances had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 74th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Ariel Frances in the 76th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Artemio Panfilo saved Petroquímica from getting behind.

Chasicó's supporters rose to their feet, but Joaquin Fernandez was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post.

After a rather tough play, Chasicó's Feliciano Bartolome got a free kick in the 88th minute. Nicolas Quico scored 2-2 in the 91st match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Lucas Kepa, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

The final whistle blew with the score still tied, and both teams left the pitch thinking about the missed chances that could have given their team the win.
