Spectators: 7233 (Terracing: 5482, Seating: 1681, VIP seats: 70) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Augusto Asteri took the kick off in the first half of the match. Saturnino Toribio was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Augusto Asteri showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 1-0 in the 9 minute of play. After a defensive mix-up in Arenales's zone, Astor Oskarbi stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ramon Perez came out of the goal and Astor Oskarbi tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Julio Salamon sent away a hard shot on goal in the 20th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Arenales's Ramon Perez played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Astor Oskarbi in the 21st minute of play. 25 minutes into the match, Alberta FC's goal looked a bit too open when Augusto Asteri came free, but Saturnino Toribio reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. If Leandro Koldobika had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 28th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Astor Oskarbi 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. In the 43rd minute, Astor Oskarbi got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Julio Salamon to make the kick off. In the 53rd minute, Eugenio Gabino got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Vladimiro Loiola charged in rather forcefully in the 62nd minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Vladimiro Loiola the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After 62 played minutes Alberta FC got a freekick which was hit by Vladimiro Loiola. The supporters of Alberta FC booed when Arenales was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 65 match minutes in a wonderful position. Anier Gerazan didn't get a good kick on the ball. Marcial Osoitz hit a great freekick 67 minutes into the match. In the 71st minute, Cristobal Lazcano hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Ramon Perez showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Astor Oskarbi in the 84th minute of the match. Julio Salamon succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 1-2 in the 89th playminute. Julio Salamon sent away a hard shot on goal in the 94th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Ramon Perez stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Astor Oskarbi's shot from short distance in the 95th minute. When the match was over Alberta FC could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than Arenales throughout the match.
