A collision led to Trapalcó AFC getting a freekick after 2 minutes play. Fulgencio Garcia hit a great ball. When Humberto Koldobika came up free with the goalie in the 4th minute, the Trapalcó AFC fans jumped to their feet.

Cirilo Lleir tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 11 minutes into the game, Juan Rico was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Trapalcó AFC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Rosario Central the free kick. After 13 played minutes, Rosario Central's Ildefonso Hulberto shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Marciano Neto came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line.
