Moises Fernandino sent away a hard shot on goal in the 4th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

The tension between the El Salvador and the Capivariano F.C. players grew even worse after the yellow card. 22 minutes into the match, Abram Luque had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Leonardo Moreira.

Leonardo Moreira stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Jorge Magrina's shot from short distance in the 38th minute. After the first half El Salvador were leading 0-3. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Waldemar Batista made a kick off. In the 52nd match minute, El Salvador was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Luis Rubio to maneuver through the defense. Moises Fernandino was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 73rd minute. El Salvador's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance.

Joshua Curbelo made in the 91st minute of the game a quick throw-in and Abram Luque immediately put the ball in play.
