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

Gogo Nayely took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Leonides Idacio, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 30 minutes of play, Bajada FC's Leonides Idacio made it 2-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Gogo Nayely was left in no man's land by his defense there! Apolo Hitzeder could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 40th minute of the match, but Joaquin Jokin made a huge save. If Damian Maore had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 47th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 2-3 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Augusto Bidari to strike the kick off in the second half. In the 51st minute the ball was on its way in behind Bajada FC's goalkeeper Joaquin Jokin, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. After 52 played minutes Bajada FC got a freekick which was hit by Fernan Cresitobalo. Augusto Bidari fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 57th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Gogo Nayely having to interfere. If Augusto Bidari had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 59th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 64th minute Augusto Bidari shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Gogo Nayely saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.
