The Copy FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Norberto Policarpio was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1. If Norberto Policarpio had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 17th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Filiberto Niguel showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Ramon Lizer in the 19th minute of the match.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Norberto Policarpio stepped up to make the kick off in the second half.
