The team could still extend the lead shortly after, at 13'. The Alianza team would demonstrate excellent efficiency, scoring 2 goals on the 3 shots they had on goal in the first half. The Ind. Medellin team would take more control of the game in the rest of the first half, however, without being able to create enough danger to reduce the result. To make matters worse, Ind. Medellin's team would be reduced to 10 players at 40', with the expulsion of Leon Muniz. Even so, the Ind. Medellin team would have the chance to reduce the result but would waste a penalty in the 49th minute of the second half. From that moment on, the game would get complicated, and it would be the Alianza team that, in the second half, would take over the rest of the game. Despite this, the Ind. Medellin team would be able to create goal opportunities, but would not be able to finish them, and the Alianza team would take the 3 points.
