If Joel Gaona had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 2nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Alberto Tafalla scored 0-1 in the 6th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Artemio Salvino, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

Artemio Salvino was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-2. 12 minutes into the match, Teɱperłey Cɨŧy's goal looked a bit too open when Alberto Tafalla came free, but Artemio Salvino reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
