Spectators: 47 (Terracing: 36, Seating: 11, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Didiet Jeliteng kicked off to start the match. 5 minutes into the match, Panama's goal looked a bit too open when Pasha Jayusman came free, but Marcos Cotilla reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Marcos Cotilla showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Didiet Jeliteng, who was totally free with the ball in the 10th minute.

In the 29th minute Didiet Jeliteng shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Marcos Cotilla saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a defensive mix-up in Panama's zone, Didiet Jeliteng stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Marcos Cotilla came out of the goal and Didiet Jeliteng tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play.

After 52nd play minutes Didiet Jeliteng shot 0-2, a short shot which went by Marcos Cotilla and just under the crossbar into goal.

After 68 played minutes Panama got a freekick which was hit by Matthew Garrido.
