Estadio Atahona
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Arturo Kiliz took the kick off in the first half of the match. Fabricio Eron showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Arturo Kiliz in the 9th minute of the match. When Casimiro Colon came up free with the goalie in the 11th minute, the Atahona fans jumped to their feet.
