CERRO PORTEÑO made a substitution. Astor Sobrido replaced Claude Ebro. Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Rexy Fachrezi to make the kick off.

The referee ignored CERRO PORTEÑO's protests and gave Astor Sobrido a yellow card for diving instead. 64 minutes into the game, Pinto Valer was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. CERRO PORTEÑO's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Jakarta Wolf SC the free kick. Pinto Valer kicked well hit freekick during the 64th minute of the match.
