Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Nemesio Dolfos made the kick off which started today's match. Alfonso de la Cruz sent away a hard shot on goal in the 3rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The supporters of Bolivia booed when Ψ virgen Ψ was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 11 match minutes in a wonderful position. Nemesio Dolfos didn't get a good kick on the ball. 13 minutes in the game Aggelos Troglis did a throw-in, and the ball was quickly in game thanks to Lucio Domenec. Guaberto Panpili could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 20th minute of the match, but Camilo Freixa made a huge save. The throw-in from Joshua Miralles in the 22nd minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by Ψ virgen Ψ's Aggelos Troglis. Lucio Domenec received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 23rd minute. Camilo Freixa tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 30 minutes into the match, Eduardo Fontirroig notched a goal, 0-3, to the right of Ψ virgen Ψ's Benedicto Maule. Benedicto Maule was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After some careless play in the Ψ virgen Ψ defense, Mario Fernandino kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Benedicto Maule. The Ψ virgen Ψ fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Benedicto Maule should have stopped the shot. Benedicto Maule showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Eduardo Fontirroig, who was totally free with the ball in the 42nd minute. 43 minutes into the match, Ψ virgen Ψ's goal looked a bit too open when Julio Chicote came free, but Benedicto Maule reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Benedicto Maule made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Eduardo Fontirroig in the 45th minute of play. After some careless play in the Ψ virgen Ψ defense, Julio Chicote kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Benedicto Maule. The Ψ virgen Ψ fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Benedicto Maule should have stopped the shot. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-5 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Mario Fernandino to make the kick off. Mario Fernandino sent away a hard shot on goal in the 54th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. With a little luck, Ψ virgen Ψ's Benedicto Maule got control of the ball when Mario Fernandino tried to sneak it across the goal line.

Benedicto Maule made an important save on a dangerous shot by Mario Fernandino in the 74th minute. In the 76th minute, Eduardo Fontirroig 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. After some fancy dribbling in the 78th minute, Julio Chicote managed to get in a good position for a shot. Bolivia's supporters rose to their feet, but Julio Chicote was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Benedicto Maule breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Benedicto Maule made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Julio Chicote in the 80th minute of play.

When the match had gone on for 89 minutes, Julio Chicote took a quick shot and it went in 0-9 without a chance for Benedicto Maule to make any attempt to save it. Benedicto Maule came out of the goal in the 93rd minute to try and stop a shot by Bolivia's Mario Fernandino.
