In the 5th minute the ball was on its way in behind Frontera's goalkeeper Nicanor Gizon, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Jorge Dubardo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 6th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ciriaco Frederico having to interfere. Epifanio Xacintu took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 13th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Ciriaco Frederico. La Gloria Canalla's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. Carolo Duardo took the ball and in the 15 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Nicanor Gizon. Nicanor Gizon dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-1.
