Geronimo Ekialde was slow to take the kick. During this time Mística Pincharrata's players had a chance to rest. Many of Mística Pincharrata's supporters were seen to leave the ground early as it became clear their team was going to lose. Mística Pincharrata may have spent more time on the ball, but Los Trip were more willing to take their chances and they walked away with the win.
