Florentino Hechter stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Gaudencio Presebal's shot from short distance in the 37th minute. Israel Quin might have been able to make a better finish in the 39th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Florentino Hechter. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Israel Quin ran back to his position shaking his head. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-1.
