Spectators: 6665 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1665, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Aristides Jurdan kicked off to start the match. After 2 played minutes, RIV-PLATECH's Melquiades Martxelin shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Hilario Manex came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in RIV-PLATECH reached it. 10 minutes into the match, Leguizamón FC's goal looked a bit too open when Jonathan Locaio came free, but Hilario Manex reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. If Aristides Jurdan had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

In the 18th minute, Baldomero Florinio hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Serafin Bazil made a fantastic save in the 26th minute, when Ulises Mantzio sent off a good shot on target. 33 minutes into the match, Aristides Jurdan had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Serafin Bazil. RIV-PLATECH's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Aristides Jurdan was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-1. In the 37th minute, Jonathan Locaio left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The RIV-PLATECH fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-2. Alfonso Mambru received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 44th minute. Hilario Manex tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Jonathan Locaio in the 47th minute of play forced Leguizamón FC's goalkeeper Hilario Manex to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The wind increased when Jonathan Locaio made the kick off in the second half. Aristides Jurdan might have been able to make a better finish in the 51st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Serafin Bazil. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Aristides Jurdan ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 59th minute, Ulises Mantzio left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net.

Jonathan Locaio received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 80th minute. Hilario Manex tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.
