- 35' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

- 63' CA Union manager makes another effort to make the tables turned. Pablo Cuadra is hanging Jalil Juan Elias on the field on 63 minute.
- 68' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
- 73' Adam Bareiro is ready to make an impact after coming on for Angel Romero at the 73 minute mark.
