Spectators: 145 (Terracing: 110, Seating: 33, VIP seats: 2) 7 minutes in the game 宋皓沙 did a throw-in, and the ball was quickly in game thanks to Jorge Hagi. Jorge Hagi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 7th minute.

After 12 minutes of play, Chivos's Wilfredo Cordara made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Montrell Harrell was left in no man's land by his defense there! 14 minutes into the game, Mario Rodriguez recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Kaan Safir.

The corner was taken by Eduardo Pirro in the 20th minute. Pedro Jaunti sent away a hard shot on goal in the 31st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.
