Spectators: 7207 (Terracing: 5407, Seating: 1657, VIP seats: 143) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Blas Esdras started the match with the kick off. After 5 minutes, Epifanio Pabla mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the LOS CHAPLIN and the Tortugas players grew even worse after the yellow card. The supporters of Tortugas booed when LOS CHAPLIN was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 5 match minutes in a wonderful position. Epifanio Pabla didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Blas Esdras came up free with the goalie in the 9th minute, the Tortugas 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 Blas Esdras couldn't finish the play. Justino Eneto didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Blas Esdras went, in the 13th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. Joaquin Marino's late challenge caught a Tortugas's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Joaquin Marino helped the player get up and apologised. The supporters of Tortugas booed when LOS CHAPLIN was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 25 match minutes in a wonderful position. Joaquin Marino didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Blas Esdras had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 27th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. A hard shot by Armando Atarrabi from long distance, 31 minutes into the match, got Silvestre Pueblo's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. After some fancy dribbling in the 33rd minute, Blas Esdras managed to get in a good position for a shot. Tortugas's supporters rose to their feet, but Blas Esdras was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Justino Eneto breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Teofilo Roldanillo sent away a hard shot on goal in the 35th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Tortugas's Apolo Sauveur got a good chance for a goal in the 37th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Zeledon Oxel sent away a hard shot on goal in the 45th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Zeledon Oxel to make the kick off. Aaron Leoiar fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 54th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Silvestre Pueblo having to interfere. After 56 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Tortugas! The referee gave LOS CHAPLIN a penalty, 58 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by Ovidio Bidari, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of Tortugas's Silvestre Pueblo. 1-1.

Zeledon Oxel received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 70th minute. Silvestre Pueblo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. When Paulino Orland fell near the penalty area in the 72nd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Tortugas's protests and gave Paulino Orland a yellow card for diving instead. Apolo Sauveur received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 86th minute. Justino Eneto tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Teofilo Roldanillo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 94th minute.
