Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Arnaldo Beturian made the kick off which started today's match. A sloppy throw-in by Felix Garrido in the 2nd minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Dionisia's Aquilino Piearres. An unexpectedly hard shot by Mariano Lacasa in the 5th minute of play forced Dionisia's goalkeeper Serafim Eanes to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 7th minute, Mariano Lacasa made a precise shot to the right of Serafim Eanes. Dionisia's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-1. When the match had gone on for 11 minutes, Arnaldo Beturian took a quick shot and it went in 1-1 without a chance for Thiago Pliego to make any attempt to save it. Mariano Lacasa's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Serafim Eanes read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 14th minute of play. In the 15th minute the ball was on its way in behind Chile's goalkeeper Thiago Pliego, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 17 minutes into the match, Dionisia's Arnaldo Beturian sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Thiago Pliego narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Dionisia were awarded a corner in the 18th minute after Chile's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Lucio Garoa took the corner. 21 minutes into the match, Mariano Lacasa had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Serafim Eanes. Dionisia's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Mariano Lacasa was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-2. Felix Garrido made in the 28th minute of the game a fairly good throw-in which was taken care of by Guillermo Fontirroig. Serafim Eanes stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Mariano Lacasa's shot from short distance in the 29th minute. The corner led Chile's Xavier Figueroa to fire away a dangerous shot which Serafim Eanes despite some difficulties managed to get hold on the ball. In the 33rd minute of the game Felix Garrido made a throw-in which Guillermo Fontirroig played forward. Chile's Thiago Pliego proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 34th minute of the match, managed to save Chile from getting a goal against them. Serafim Eanes took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Mariano Lacasa, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 40th minute, Mariano Lacasa got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 1-2.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Mariano Lacasa to strike the kick off in the second half. In the 54th minute, Aquilino Piearres hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 57th minute the ball was on its way in behind Chile's goalkeeper Thiago Pliego, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 60 minutes into the game, Dionisia's Arnaldo Beturian nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Thiago Pliego made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 2-2. Dionisia's Peng Sha Yang was substituted for Arnaldo Beturian. Thiago Pliego made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Melchor Gregory in the 68th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Peng Sha Yang in the 76th minute of play forced Chile's goalkeeper Thiago Pliego to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Mariano Lacasa had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 77th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 81 minutes had been played when some careless play by Chile's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Florencio Chano was slow to take the kick. During this time Dionisia's players had a chance to rest. The corner ended in Florencio Chano almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but Chile's Thiago Pliego did a great save. 91 minutes into the match, Chile's Mariano Lacasa sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Serafim Eanes narrowly saved just below the crossbar. An unexpectedly hard shot by Melchor Gregory in the 93rd minute of play forced Chile's goalkeeper Thiago Pliego to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 94th minute Melchor Gregory shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Thiago Pliego saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Melchor Gregory in the 95th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Thiago Pliego saved Chile from getting behind. Many of Chile's supporters were seen to leave the ground early as it became clear their team was going to lose. Chile may have spent more time on the ball, but Dionisia were more willing to take their chances and they walked away with the win.
