The Olympique Deleon fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-1. After a rather tough play, Haiti's Rodney Emmanuel got a free kick in the 9th minute. Célio Azevedo was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 10th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. 11 minutes into the match, Augusto Varela notched a goal, 0-2, to the right of Haiti's Noel Seide.

Noel Seide made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Augusto Varela in the 31st minute of play.

Jeremias Correia received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 36th minute. Noel Seide tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. A sloppy throw-in by Décio Rosa in the 43rd minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Haiti's Rodney Emmanuel. 47 minutes into the match, Olympique Deleon's goal looked a bit too open when Ernso Constant came free, but Kléber Lira reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 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.
