Spectators: 45 (Terracing: 35, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Elias Quadros started the match with the kick off. Rua da Pinga's Armindo Bettencourt proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 6th minute of the match, managed to save Rua da Pinga from getting a goal against them. After 11 minutes of play, El Salvador's Moises Fernandino made it 1-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Armindo Bettencourt was left in no man's land by his defense there! Moises Fernandino sent away a hard shot on goal in the 14th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. In the 17th minute, Silvano Trigueiro hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Armindo Bettencourt made a fantastic save in the 34th minute, when Abram Luque sent off a good shot on target. Joshua Curbelo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 37th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Armindo Bettencourt having to interfere. Henrique Linhares kicked well hit freekick during the 39th minute of the match. Moises Fernandino recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 43rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 45th minute, Mateo Leguizamo hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Armindo Bettencourt made a fantastic save in the 48th minute, when Abram Luque sent off a good shot on target.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Moises Fernandino was the one to do the kick off. 52 minutes into the game, Moises Fernandino cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 3-0. Armindo Bettencourt was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. If Marco Tamayo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 56th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 62 played minutes El Salvador got a freekick which was hit by Abram Luque. In the 64th minute, Luis Rubio hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 67th minute Moises Fernandino shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Armindo Bettencourt saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

After a rather tough play, El Salvador's Mateo Leguizamo got a free kick in the 80th minute. Armindo Bettencourt made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Moises Fernandino in the 83rd minute of play.
