Oscar Tono showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Beto Alonso in the 3rd minute of the match. Beto Alonso recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 8th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 18thth minute of the game Beto Alonso who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Esta FC's Oscar Tono was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Beto Alonso fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 21st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Oscar Tono having to interfere. After 25 minutes, Atilano Madeo mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Esta FC and the Az-Cerezo Osaka players grew even worse after the yellow card. Atilano Madeo kicked well hit freekick during the 25th minute of the match. When Denis Nesor came up free with the goalie in the 26th minute, the Az-Cerezo Osaka fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Denis Nesor couldn't finish the play. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Sebastian Hurko in the 30th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Oscar Tono saved Esta FC from getting behind. In the 33rd minute, Beto Alonso made a precise shot to the right of Oscar Tono. Esta FC's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-1.

The Az-Cerezo Osaka fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-2. The supporters of Esta FC booed when Az-Cerezo Osaka was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 47 match minutes in a wonderful position. Sebastiaan Rogers didn't get a good kick on the ball. Nicanor Bilbo showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ricardo Belasko, who was totally free with the ball in the 48th minute. The Esta FC players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Az-Cerezo Osaka were winning 0-2.

Bruno Feo hit a great freekick 52 minutes into the match. Beto Alonso was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 55th minute. Az-Cerezo Osaka's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. 55 minutes into the game, Uriel Rio cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-3. Oscar Tono was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Oscar Tono made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Beto Alonso in the 59th minute of play. The Az-Cerezo Osaka fans' excitement grew in the 63rd match minute when Az-Cerezo Osaka's Uriel Rio looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-4 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. After 66 played minutes Esta FC got a freekick which was hit by Bruno Feo. With his leg Oscar Tono managed to avoid a goal in the 67thth minute, when Az-Cerezo Osaka's Uriel Rio fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. The audience was convinced that Beto Alonso's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Oscar Tono was relentless in the 71st minute of the game. Uriel Rio succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 0-6 in the 79th playminute. Abel Froylan hit a great freekick 81 minutes into the match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Jimeno Luix in the 82nd minute of play forced Az-Cerezo Osaka's goalkeeper Nicanor Bilbo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Esta FC's Oscar Tono proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 96th minute of the match, managed to save Esta FC from getting a goal against them. After 97 played minutes Esta FC got a freekick which was hit by Narciso Venerando. Denis Nesor was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 98th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal.
