Spectators: 147 (Terracing: 111, Seating: 34, VIP seats: 2) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Juan Rosario took the kick off in the first half of the match. In the 5th minute Juan Rosario shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Lorenzo Salvatore saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 7th minute Cristian Quinito shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mariano Nel saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Los Laguneros de AT's Eliseo Koldobika got a good chance for a goal in the 10th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 14th minute, Globalización's Amador Beti dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 1-0.

Eduardo Sanchez kicked well hit freekick during the 19th minute of the match. Cirilo Tebaldo struck a weak shot in the 19th minute. Mariano Nel didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Globalización. In the 23rd minute of the game Julian Montrelle made a throw-in which Gabriel Jerano played forward. Juan Rosario sent away a hard shot on goal in the 24th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. After a rather tough play, Globalización's Federico Donio got a free kick in the 26th minute. An unexpectedly hard shot by Gabriel Jerano in the 35th minute of play forced Globalización's goalkeeper Lorenzo Salvatore to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 38 minutes into the match, Globalización's goal looked a bit too open when Juan Rosario came free, but Lorenzo Salvatore reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 39th minute, Juan Rosario managed to get in a good position for a shot. Los Laguneros de AT's supporters rose to their feet, but Juan Rosario was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Lorenzo Salvatore breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Cristian Quinito to make the kick off. In the 52nd minute Cristian Quinito shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mariano Nel saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 54 minutes into the game, Globalización's Amador Beti nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Mariano Nel made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 2-0.

Cristian Quinito ran back to his position shaking his head. 58 minutes into the match, Los Laguneros de AT's goal looked a bit too open when Cristian Quinito came free, but Mariano Nel reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After some careless play in the Los Laguneros de AT defense, Amador Beti kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Mariano Nel. The Los Laguneros de AT fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Mariano Nel should have stopped the shot. When Julian Montrelle fell near the penalty area in the 69th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick.
