Spectators: 45 (Terracing: 35, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Daniel Zorita made the kick off which started today's match. 【FLY】莱比锡红牛's 鲁谦烨 proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 3rd minute of the match, managed to save 【FLY】莱比锡红牛 from getting a goal against them. Julio Vera showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Natanael Sena, who was totally free with the ball in the 6th minute.

If Patric 刘备 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 37th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 39th minute 严文朗 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Julio Vera saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The audience thought a goal was coming when Cristian Sancho got free with 鲁谦烨 in the 42nd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 42 minutes into the match, Cristian Sancho dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of 鲁谦烨, 1-0. 鲁谦烨 was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Daniel Zorita showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 2-0 in the 45 minute of play. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 2-0.

Juan Sebastián Puig hit a great ball. Natanael Sena received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Julio Vera came out and tried to block the shot, but Natanael Sena slotted it home off the left post making it 2-1 in the 53rd minute. 【FLY】莱比锡红牛's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team.

To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After some fancy dribbling in the 76th minute, Daniel Zorita managed to get in a good position for a shot. Ecuador's supporters rose to their feet, but Daniel Zorita was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. 鲁谦烨 breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Julio Vera stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Patric 刘备's shot from short distance in the 79th minute. 81 minutes into the match, Ecuador's goalkeeper Julio Vera had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by 严文朗. 【FLY】莱比锡红牛's 鲁谦烨 played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Luis Andino in the 82nd minute of play. Patric 刘备 struck a weak shot in the 86th minute. Julio Vera didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 【FLY】莱比锡红牛. 90 minutes into the match, Daniel Zorita notched a goal, 3-1, to the right of 【FLY】莱比锡红牛's 鲁谦烨. 鲁谦烨 was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. With a little luck, Ecuador's Julio Vera got control of the ball when Natanael Sena tried to sneak it across the goal line.
