Ecuador's supporters crossed their fingers, but Daniel Zorita was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After a defensive mix-up in Ecuador's zone, Askild Bødtkjer stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Julio Vera came out of the goal and Askild Bødtkjer tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Ecuador's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Daniel Zorita in the 18th minute. After some fancy dribbling in the 24th minute, Anthony Dumont managed to get in a good position for a shot. BRONCOS's supporters rose to their feet, but Anthony Dumont was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Julio Vera breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. The audience was convinced that Daniel Zorita's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Cauã Veloso was relentless in the 27th minute of the game.

In the 34th minute, Ronald Bryner hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The audience thought a goal was coming when Güral Revan got free with Julio Vera in the 42nd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Cauã Veloso took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Cristian Sancho, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.
