Arena Deroense
Spectators: 7074 (Terracing: 5307, Seating: 1627, VIP seats: 140) Deportivo Deroense's Waldir Baptista started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Nicolas Benvido charged in rather forcefully in the 8th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Nicolas Benvido the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After a rather tough play, Callejeros's Nicolas Benvido got a free kick in the 8th minute. If Waldir Baptista had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 29th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Saturnino Gai's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Arnulfo Montrelle read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 40th minute of play. 41 minutes into the match, Callejeros's goal looked a bit too open when Waldir Baptista came free, but Arnulfo Montrelle reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

The wind increased when Gustavo Larra made the kick off in the second half. In the 65th match minute, Callejeros was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Nicolas Benvido to maneuver through the defense. Gaston Venceslao sent away a hard shot on goal in the 75th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Waldir Baptista had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 84th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some careless play in the Callejeros defense, Waldir Baptista kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Arnulfo Montrelle. The Callejeros fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Arnulfo Montrelle should have stopped the shot. Epifanio Gomez struck a weak shot in the 88th minute. Candido Izotz didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Callejeros. The Deportivo Deroense support was delighted with a win in a match that could easily have ended differently.
