Spectators: 45 (Terracing: 35, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) An unexpectedly hard shot by Nicasio Rito in the 21st minute of play forced River CBBA's goalkeeper Marcelo Barovero to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Borys Patora made a fantastic save in the 26th minute, when Juan Funes sent off a good shot on target. In the 27thth minute of the game Boğaçhan Akyel who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Los Playmobil FC's Borys Patora was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Marcelo Barovero took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Iwan Kolbert, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 31st minute of the match, Boğaçhan Akyel tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Borys Patora saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. After 32 minutes of play, Los Playmobil FC's Iwan Kolbert made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Marcelo Barovero was left in no man's land by his defense there! If Nicasio Rito had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 34th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 1-1 became the score in the 39th minute when Argoitz Abeijon elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. When Juan Funes fell near the penalty area in the 44th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored River CBBA's protests and gave Juan Funes a yellow card for diving instead. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Iwan Kolbert to strike the kick off in the second half. In the 53rd minute Iwan Kolbert shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Marcelo Barovero saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Juan Funes in the 56th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Borys Patora saved Los Playmobil FC from getting behind. 60 minutes into the match, Boğaçhan Akyel had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Borys Patora. Los Playmobil FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Boğaçhan Akyel was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-1. Los Playmobil FC's Edmundo Mendes was substituted for Nicasio Rito. The audience thought a goal was coming when Iwan Kolbert got free with Marcelo Barovero in the 70th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. In the 78th minute Ildefonso Platini shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Marcelo Barovero saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Iwan Kolbert fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Marcelo Barovero having to interfere. River CBBA's Gilabert Bradi was substituted for Matías Almeida. The referee blew his whistle, and the match came to a close. The players exchanged shirts and headed down the tunnel. The River CBBA fans cheered their team off the field, for while Los Playmobil FC had put up a good fight, they were unable to come out of the game with any points to show for their effort.
