- 0' We are underway at Claudio Chiqui Tapia. The crowd does wile while the referee lows the starting whistle.
- 5' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Ivan Tapia made 90 appearances and scored 7 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 10' CA Barracas Central is showing some good football. However, CA Barracas Central are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
- 15' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 20' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 20 minutes.
