Clodoveo Llanos could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 8th minute of the match, but Cecilio Mantzio made a huge save. ΚΛΚΞRΘS ᴾᴵᴬᴿᴬ's defense didn't have a chance, in the 8th minute, when Clodoveo Llanos scored to the left of an out of position Cecilio Mantzio, making the score, 1-0. After some fancy dribbling in the 14th minute, Fermin Oto managed to get in a good position for a shot. ΚΛΚΞRΘS ᴾᴵᴬᴿᴬ's supporters rose to their feet, but Fermin Oto was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post.

Abelardo Rainerio dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-1.

Fermin Oto might have been able to make a better finish in the 27th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Abelardo Rainerio. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out.
