Spectators: 7506 (Terracing: 5630, Seating: 1726, VIP seats: 150) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Darnell Watts started the match with the kick off. An unexpectedly hard shot by Darnell Watts in the 3rd minute of play forced Titanes Mayas's goalkeeper Lázaro Jeraldo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Through an outstanding action, after 10 minutes, Osvaldo Cadena successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. In the 13th minute, Denis Brun hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.

After 19 played minutes Titanes Mayas got a freekick which was hit by Ubaldo Urtungo. Darnell Watts sent away a hard shot on goal in the 21st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 25th minute Edgar Chandler shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Lázaro Jeraldo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When the match clock showed 31 minutes, the score became 1-0 when Daniel Karlo sped through Brooklyn SC's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Osvaldo Cadena.

Osvaldo Cadena was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Randall Haynes received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 42nd minute. Lázaro Jeraldo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Daniel Karlo took the ball and in the 44 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Osvaldo Cadena. Osvaldo Cadena dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 3-0. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

Brooklyn SC's attentive Jon Smith managed to snatch the ball when Albino Chayo made a throw-in in the 52nd minute of the game. A collision led to Titanes Mayas getting a freekick after 54 minutes play. Raul Txomin hit a great ball. 61 minutes into the match, Brooklyn SC's goal looked a bit too open when Denis Brun came free, but Osvaldo Cadena reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. If Denis Brun had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 62nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Dario Iruinea made in the 64th minute of the game a quick throw-in and Raul Txomin immediately put the ball in play. If Raul Txomin had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 67th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead.

Osvaldo Cadena showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Daniel Karlo in the 78th minute of the match. When Jon Smith fell near the penalty area in the 86th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Brooklyn SC's protests and gave Jon Smith a yellow card for diving instead. Ubaldo Urtungo, 87 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. After 89 played minutes Titanes Mayas got a freekick which was hit by Daniel Karlo. The audience was convinced that Darnell Watts's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Lázaro Jeraldo was relentless in the 91st minute of the game. Teo Estavan recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 94th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.
