Spectators: 7137 (Terracing: 5428, Seating: 1664, VIP seats: 45) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Honorio Sabin kicked off to start the match. Honorio Sabin received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 3rd minute. Bernardo Chano tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After a defensive mix-up in Almafuerte AFC's zone, Damian Caetano stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Bernardo Chano came out of the goal and Damian Caetano tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Reynaldo Gauargi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Marcial Henric in the 14th minute of play. Bernardo Chano took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Honorio Sabin, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 17th match minute, Almafuerte AFC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Filomeno Rik to maneuver through the defense. Damian Caetano could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 19th minute of the match, but Bernardo Chano made a huge save. After recieving a nice pass, BocaJrs's Tomas Bernebe tried to score from far away in the 21st minute, but the ball went over the crossbar. Marcial Henric recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 23rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Erasmo Panpili received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 28th minute. Reynaldo Gauargi tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Damian Caetano sent away a hard shot on goal in the 32nd minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Honorio Sabin was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 35th minute. BocaJrs's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. After some fancy dribbling in the 37th minute, Damian Caetano managed to get in a good position for a shot. BocaJrs's supporters rose to their feet, but Damian Caetano was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Bernardo Chano breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After some careless play in the Almafuerte AFC defense, Honorio Sabin kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Bernardo Chano. The Almafuerte AFC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Bernardo Chano should have stopped the shot. Edgardo Elivareo's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Bernardo Chano firmly grabbed it by the left post. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 1-0.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Marcial Henric to make the kick off. Damian Caetano sent away a hard shot on goal in the 54th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Bernardo Chano made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Honorio Sabin in the 59th minute of play. If Erasmo Panpili had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 63rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 65th minute, Almafuerte AFC's Marcial Henric dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 1-1. Damian Caetano fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 70th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Bernardo Chano having to interfere. In the 73rd minute Edgard Bernal shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Reynaldo Gauargi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Erasmo Panpili scored 1-2 in the 78th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Reynaldo Gauargi, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Erasmo Panpili sent away a hard shot on goal in the 84th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Edgardo Elivareo hit a great freekick 85 minutes into the match. 97 minutes into the game, Honorio Sabin cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-2. Bernardo Chano was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in.
