Spectators: 143 (Terracing: 108, Seating: 33, VIP seats: 2) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Sven-Olof Hamberg took the kick off in the first half of the match. 7 minutes into the game, Sven-Olof Hamberg recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Marciano Rio. Sven-Olof Hamberg showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 1-0. After a rather tough play, Aguila Romana's Robustiano Jakue got a free kick in the 18th minute. After 21 minutes of play, Aguila Romana's Americo Dorio made it 2-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Pablo Jacindo was left in no man's land by his defense there! The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Ramon Platon during the 28th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. In the 28th minute, Ramon Platon hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 32nd minute, Basilio Richie hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Americo Dorio recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 33rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Sven-Olof Hamberg received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 35th minute. Marciano Rio tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The supporters of La MaKina del Parque booed when Aguila Romana was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 36 match minutes in a wonderful position. Modesto Lander didn't get a good kick on the ball. After having played for 37 minutes, Sven-Olof Hamberg managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. La MaKina del Parque's supporters crossed their fingers, but Sven-Olof Hamberg was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Americo Dorio in the 44th minute of play forced La MaKina del Parque's goalkeeper Pablo Jacindo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Americo Dorio to strike the kick off in the second half. After 65 played minutes Aguila Romana got a freekick which was hit by Haroldo Blanco. Mariano Walme took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 66th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Marciano Rio. Aguila Romana's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. Sven-Olof Hamberg struck a weak shot in the 68th minute. Marciano Rio didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for La MaKina del Parque. After 72 minutes, Robustiano Jakue mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Aguila Romana and the La MaKina del Parque players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 72nd minute, Robustiano Jakue hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 72nd minute, Sven-Olof Hamberg ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Marciano Rio was frozen by the shot and now it was 3-1. The supporters of La MaKina del Parque booed when Aguila Romana was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 75 match minutes in a wonderful position. Modesto Lander didn't get a good kick on the ball. Mariano Walme might have been able to make a better finish in the 76th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Marciano Rio. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Mariano Walme ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 77th match minute, Aguila Romana was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Americo Dorio to maneuver through the defense. The La MaKina del Parque fans' excitement grew in the 79th match minute when La MaKina del Parque's Sven-Olof Hamberg looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 4-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. In the 90th minute Americo Dorio shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Pablo Jacindo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 93rd minute the ball was on its way in behind Aguila Romana's goalkeeper Marciano Rio, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Aguila Romana's supporters were dissatisfied at the end of the match because La MaKina del Parque had won, even though Aguila Romana had held more of the ball.
