Adolfo Mon sent away a hard shot on goal in the 24th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Zeledon Elazar in the 33rd minute of play forced Bella Vista's goalkeeper Conrado Iratze to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Zeledon Elazar to make the kick off.

Zeledon Elazar helped the player get up and apologised. Zeledon Elazar kicked well hit freekick during the 53rd minute of the match.
