Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Adriana Ortzi started the match with the kick off. Prudencio Dolfo took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Adriana Ortzi, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Prudencio Dolfo came out of the goal in the 4th minute to try and stop a shot by Lonquimay AFC's Silverio Teofilio. But to his dismay, Silverio Teofilio quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. A collision led to Lonquimay AFC getting a freekick after 7 minutes play.

Prudencio Dolfo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Lonquimay AFC. After 13 minutes, Flavio Gai mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Lonquimay AFC and the Pardo AFC players grew even worse after the yellow card.

After some fancy dribbling in the 19th minute, Moises Leizarraga managed to get in a good position for a shot.

Efrain Incendio tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Aureliano Errapel to strike the kick off in the second half. In the 52nd minute Aureliano Errapel shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Efrain Incendio saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a defensive mix-up in Lonquimay AFC's zone, Aureliano Errapel stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat.

Adriana Ortzi blasted a shot towards the goal in the 85th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Prudencio Dolfo having to make a save.
