Spectators: 7277 (Terracing: 5460, Seating: 1673, VIP seats: 144) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Blas Hanot took the kick off in the first half of the match. The supporters of Rio de la Plata booed when FAPA F.C. was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 9 match minutes in a wonderful position. Clemente Francesco didn't get a good kick on the ball. Inocencio Fonso made an important save on a dangerous shot by Miguel Orlondo in the 12th minute. The goalkeeper, Inocencio Fonso, was totally fooled by FAPA F.C.'s Arturo Gerazan, who 18 minutes into the game made a penalty shot that went in on the goalkeeper's left side. Santo Ovando sent away a hard shot on goal in the 22nd minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Rodrigo Naike showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Cesar Stanislao in the 24th minute of the match. In the 26th minute of the game Santo Ermano made a throw-in which Niceto Argider played forward. Miguel Orlondo could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 30th minute of the match, but Inocencio Fonso made a huge save. Rio de la Plata's Santo Ovando got a good chance for a goal in the 33rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. When Antonio Gauargi came up free with the goalie in the 34th minute, the Rio de la Plata 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 Antonio Gauargi couldn't finish the play. The Rio de la Plata fans' excitement grew in the 36th match minute when Rio de la Plata's Santo Ovando 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 1-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. Inocencio Fonso showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Blas Hanot, who was totally free with the ball in the 40th minute. In the 42nd minute, Santo Ovando left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Rio de la Plata fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-2. After having played for 46 minutes, Cesar Stanislao managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Rio de la Plata's supporters crossed their fingers, but Cesar Stanislao was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. The FAPA F.C. players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Rio de la Plata were winning 1-2.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Santo Ovando to make the kick off. Inocencio Fonso took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Alberto Filipo, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Cesar Stanislao sent away a hard shot on goal in the 53rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Rodrigo Naike made an important save on a dangerous shot by Marcelino Iraido in the 59th minute. In the 60th minute, Clemente Francesco hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Rodrigo Naike was a little too slow when Santo Ovando got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 62nd minute. The score was now 1-3. Luisito Jorrin scored 1-4 in the 66th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Rodrigo Naike, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 70 minutes into the match, Luisito Jorrin notched a goal, 1-5, to the right of FAPA F.C.'s Rodrigo Naike. Rodrigo Naike was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. When the match had gone on for 73 minutes, Santo Ovando took a quick shot and it went in 1-6 without a chance for Rodrigo Naike to make any attempt to save it. After some fancy dribbling in the 76th minute, Luisito Jorrin managed to get in a good position for a shot. Rio de la Plata's supporters rose to their feet, but Luisito Jorrin was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Rodrigo Naike breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After a defensive mix-up in FAPA F.C.'s zone, Cesar Stanislao stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Rodrigo Naike came out of the goal and Cesar Stanislao tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 86thth minute of the game Santo Ovando who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but FAPA F.C.'s Rodrigo Naike was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. If Antonio Gauargi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 88th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Marcelino Iraido could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 90th minute of the match, but Rodrigo Naike made a huge save. If Santo Ovando had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 91st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 96th minute, Cesar Stanislao 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.
