Defensores del Chaco
Spectators: 44 (Terracing: 34, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Jaime Pardo took the kick off in the first half of the match. When Dominic Solanki came up free with the goalie in the 11th minute, the ♛ ͲօէէҽղƒìҽӀժ ⚽️ 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 Dominic Solanki couldn't finish the play. After 17 minutes, Melquiades Ladio mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the ♛ ͲօէէҽղƒìҽӀժ ⚽️ and the Paraguay players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 17th minute, Melquiades Ladio hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Dominic Solanki had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 23rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. In the 23rd minute Dominic Solanki shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jacobo Nores saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

A collision led to ♛ ͲօէէҽղƒìҽӀժ ⚽️ getting a freekick after 39 minutes play. Pedro Policarpio hit a great ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Dominic Solanki in the 49th minute of play forced Paraguay's goalkeeper Jacobo Nores to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Without hesitation aimed to the right of Jacobo Nores, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save.
