Spectators: 7231 (Terracing: 5425, Seating: 1663, VIP seats: 143) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Candido Orlo took the kick off in the first half of the match. 8 minutes into the match, CAN FC's goal looked a bit too open when Osvaldo Chuan came free, but Camilo Mikelar reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Candido Orlo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 9th minute. Camilo Mikelar tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. A collision led to C.S.C.D. Sargento Cabral getting a freekick after 14 minutes play. Ezequiel Veronica hit a great ball. Melquiades Pirro could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 25th minute of the match, but Felipe Esquipula made a huge save. After a rather tough play, C.S.C.D. Sargento Cabral's Cristian Licerio got a free kick in the 27th minute. An unexpectedly hard shot by Matias Sustrai in the 30th minute of play forced C.S.C.D. Sargento Cabral's goalkeeper Felipe Esquipula to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The supporters of C.S.C.D. Sargento Cabral booed when CAN FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 31 match minutes in a wonderful position. Evaristo Erruki didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Candido Orlo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 34th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some fancy dribbling in the 40th minute, Matias Sustrai managed to get in a good position for a shot. CAN FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Matias Sustrai was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Felipe Esquipula breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Felipe Esquipula showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Matias Sustrai, who was totally free with the ball in the 42nd minute. 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.

Tiburcio Hulberto struck a weak shot in the 54th minute. Felipe Esquipula didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for CAN FC. An unexpected shot in the 62nd minute by Osvaldo Chuan got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. Candido Orlo sent away a hard shot on goal in the 75th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The audience thought a goal was coming when Osvaldo Chuan got free with Camilo Mikelar in the 77th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. C.S.C.D. Sargento Cabral's Felipe Esquipula played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Matias Sustrai in the 80th minute of play. Candido Orlo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 81st minute. Camilo Mikelar tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

Sargento Cabral's supporters crossed their fingers, but Osvaldo Chuan was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. If Matias Sustrai had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 95th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 98 minutes of play, CAN FC's Tiburcio Hulberto made it 2-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Felipe Esquipula was left in no man's land by his defense there! CAN FC were really happy, having secured the victory after a very even contest. They thanked the players of C.S.C.D. Sargento Cabral for a fine match.
