Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) El Rojo FC's Francisco Solustiano 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. An unexpected shot in the 3rd minute by Teofilo Gergori got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. An unexpectedly hard shot by Teodosio Hitz in the 7th minute of play forced El Rojo FC's goalkeeper Gil Brás to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The audience was convinced that Teodosio Hitz's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Gil Brás was relentless in the 12th minute of the game. 16 minutes into the match, El Rojo FC's goal looked a bit too open when Teodosio Hitz came free, but Gil Brás reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Francisco Solustiano took the ball and in the 18 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Salvador Tulio. Salvador Tulio dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-1. In the 23rd minute, Francisco Solustiano ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Salvador Tulio was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-2. Gil Brás was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Teodosio Hitz showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 1-2 in the 30 minute of play. If Teofilo Gergori had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 40th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 1-2 lead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Teodosio Hitz was the one to do the kick off. After some fancy dribbling in the 54th minute, Teofilo Gergori managed to get in a good position for a shot. Oratorio's supporters rose to their feet, but Teofilo Gergori was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Gil Brás breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Francisco Solustiano could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 56th minute of the match, but Salvador Tulio made a huge save.

The El Rojo FC fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-3. 62 minutes into the match, Oratorio's goalkeeper Salvador Tulio had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Francisco Solustiano.
