Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Albino Reyes made the kick off and thus started the match. The supporters of Maquinas AFC booed when Tienso was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 5 match minutes in a wonderful position. Nicasio Gorri didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Tienso's Silvio Ritchie in the 8th minute got a chance for a shot 8th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Maquinas AFC's goalie prevented a goal. Segundo Mincho struck a weak shot in the 10th minute. Remigio Oton didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Maquinas AFC.

After 13 played minutes Tienso got a freekick which was hit by Virgilio Marino. In the 23rd minute Silvio Ritchie shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Anacleto Tancredo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Aurelio Noe took the ball and in the 24 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Anacleto Tancredo.

Silvio Ritchie scored 1-2 in the 42nd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Anacleto Tancredo, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 1-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Aurelio Noe was the one to do the kick off. Tienso's Leonardo Azibar has a good shot, but didn't show it this time. The shot went over the crossbar in the 59th minute. Tienso's Silvio Ritchie got a good chance for a goal in the 65th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. 69 minutes into the match, Maquinas AFC's goal looked a bit too open when Aurelio Noe came free, but Anacleto Tancredo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Silvio Ritchie recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 73rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Maquinas AFC's Anacleto Tancredo played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Aurelio Noe in the 75th minute of play. Anacleto Tancredo made an important save on a dangerous shot by Silvio Ritchie in the 76th minute. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Guaberto Kaxen during the 80th minute.

After a defensive mix-up in Maquinas AFC's zone, Aurelio Noe stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Anacleto Tancredo came out of the goal and Aurelio Noe tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 88th minute, Aurelio Noe fired away a shot on goal. He put a little to much spin on the ball and sent it just wide of the right post. When Albino Reyes came up free with the goalie in the 90th minute, the Maquinas AFC fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Albino Reyes couldn't finish the play. After a rather tough play, Tienso's Enzo Kusko got a free kick in the 91st minute. Maquinas AFC were awarded a corner in the 94th minute after Tienso's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Dionisio Lugo took the corner. A nice corner shot did that Dionisio Lugo got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Remigio Oton quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. The Maquinas AFC fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. Tienso were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
