Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Bruno Felo got the match started through his kick off. After a rather tough play, Bella Vista's Teodoro Tancredo got a free kick in the 2nd minute. Humberto Harri spun around in front of the goal 7 minutes in the game, and got away a shot that, to his disappointment, went to the left of Ticucho AFC's goal. Hermengildo Hitz shot the penalty kick by force right in the crossbar. No goal. Ismael Inocente had several of the Ticucho AFC's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 12 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 1-0 score and a disappointed Epifanio Gumaro as he didn't even see the shot coming. Gilberto Lope struck a weak shot in the 20th minute. Guaberto Osorio didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Ticucho AFC. Guaberto Osorio took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Bruno Felo, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Bruno Felo scored 1-1 in the 20th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Guaberto Osorio, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. The crowd rose to their feet as Humberto Harri kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Epifanio Gumaro. That made the score 2-1 in the 25 minute of play. After having played for 30 minutes, Humberto Harri managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Bella Vista's supporters crossed their fingers, but Humberto Harri was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 32nd minute, Ismael Inocente got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. If Ismael Inocente had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 37th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Epifanio Gumaro showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Humberto Harri in the 38th minute of the match. Humberto Harri was extremely unlucky when he, in the 40th minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. If Ismael Inocente had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 41st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Humberto Harri might have been able to make a better finish in the 49th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Epifanio Gumaro. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Humberto Harri ran back to his position shaking his head. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 2-1.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Humberto Harri to strike the kick off in the second half. After a defensive mix-up in Ticucho AFC's zone, Ismael Inocente stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Epifanio Gumaro came out of the goal and Ismael Inocente tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Ticucho AFC's Epifanio Gumaro played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Humberto Harri in the 58th minute of play. Ismael Inocente scored 3-1 in the 59th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Epifanio Gumaro, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Humberto Harri in the 62nd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Epifanio Gumaro saved Ticucho AFC from getting behind. Ismael Inocente received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 65th minute. Epifanio Gumaro tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Humberto Harri had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 68th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some fancy dribbling in the 79th minute, Hermengildo Hitz managed to get in a good position for a shot. Bella Vista's supporters rose to their feet, but Hermengildo Hitz was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Epifanio Gumaro breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 88th minute, Ismael Inocente got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. In the 90thth minute of the game Humberto Harri who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Ticucho AFC's Epifanio Gumaro was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. After 93 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Bella Vista! When the match had been going on for 95 minutes, Ticucho AFC's Teobaldo Marques got an opportunity to shoot a penalty. He stayed cool and waited for the goalkeeper to move, before he confidently shot the ball into the goal, to the left of Guaberto Osorio. Epifanio Gumaro showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Ismael Inocente in the 99th minute of the match. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. Bella Vista had played much better football throughout.
