The referee showed Lucio Lalla the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play.

The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Francisco Cordarius during the 19th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. Francisco Cordarius hit a great freekick 19 minutes into the match.

Reynaldo Dubardo showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Celso Sanson, who was totally free with the ball in the 38th minute. After the first half Frisia were leading 0-1. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

If Elvio Bermudo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 58th minute.

After having played for 96 minutes, Elvio Bermudo managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Frisia's supporters crossed their fingers, but Elvio Bermudo was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Frisia played a much better game than Larroude FC and deserved their victory. The Larroude FC players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
