Aniol Camara's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but 胡振鸿 read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 4th minute of play. A A Arizona's 胡振鸿 played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Beila Ladra in the 5th minute of play. In the 5th minute Beila Ladra shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 胡振鸿 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Beila Ladra in the 10th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg 胡振鸿 saved A A Arizona from getting behind. After some fancy dribbling in the 12th minute, Manuel Paiva managed to get in a good position for a shot. A A Arizona's supporters rose to their feet, but Manuel Paiva was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Cris Villafane breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Manuel Paiva fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 16th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Cris Villafane having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Aniol Camara in the 20th minute of play forced A A Arizona's goalkeeper 胡振鸿 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After 21 minutes A A Arizona's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Valery Valerón who took care of the corner kick. The corner first didn't look so dangerous but when Alvito Alvarez got the ball he succeeded in some way to get through the defenders to deliver a very hard score. Result 0-1. 21 minutes into the match. With a little luck, Club Deportivo Polonia's Cris Villafane got control of the ball when Gernando dos Santos tried to sneak it across the goal line. A hard shot 31 in the game by Manuel Paiva from a close distance when the talented Cris Villafane managed to make a qualified save. Club Deportivo Polonia's players were relieved. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Nilson Hoffmann during the 32nd minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. Nilson Hoffmann hit a great freekick 32 minutes into the match. Cris Villafane made a fantastic save in the 35th minute, when Manuel Paiva sent off a good shot on target. 40 minutes into the game, Beila Ladra was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Club Deportivo Polonia's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave A A Arizona the free kick. After 40 played minutes Club Deportivo Polonia got a freekick which was hit by Beila Ladra. Cris Villafane made an important save on a dangerous shot by Manuel Paiva in the 44th minute. 46 minutes into the match, Ronaldinho Cruz had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Cris Villafane. Club Deportivo Polonia's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Ronaldinho Cruz was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-1. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 2-1.
The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Beila Ladra stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Beila Ladra could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 53rd minute of the match, but 胡振鸿 made a huge save. 胡振鸿 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Aniol Camara, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 58 minutes into the match, Aniol Camara notched a goal, 2-2, to the right of A A Arizona's 胡振鸿. 胡振鸿 was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. In the 64th minute, Fran Cuadrado hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 68th minute of the match, Casimiro Erosa tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but 胡振鸿 saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. 胡振鸿 made a fantastic save in the 71st minute, when Casimiro Erosa sent off a good shot on target. If Casimiro Erosa had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 74th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Fran Cuadrado hit a great freekick 81 minutes into the match. Leonardo Lucas scored 3-2 in the 85th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Cris Villafane, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Alvito Alvarez struck a weak shot in the 89th minute. 胡振鸿 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Club Deportivo Polonia. The supporters of Club Deportivo Polonia booed when A A Arizona was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 91 match minutes in a wonderful position. Kléber Ceresso didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 94th minute the ball was on its way in behind A A Arizona's goalkeeper 胡振鸿, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. For all the effort they put into the match, the Club Deportivo Polonia players left disappointed. They had fought hard, but couldn't break down the home team's defense. The match ended in a win for A A Arizona.
