Nevertheless, Olimpia showed calm to come out playing from the bottom; so she asked him out an unsuspecting Cerro Porteño, who did not take the mark from Derlis González and the sprinter, in a fit of his remarkable quality, found the opening goal early (11′) when connecting first a cross from Iván Torres.

The goal forced Cerro Porteño to take the initiative and Olimpia’s willing midfielder managed to contain some imprecise Claudio Aquino and Federico Carrizo by wide passages.who led the times of the Barça offensive.
Cerro asserted the ability of his midfielders and with pure touch he brought danger to the visiting area.
Marcelo Moreno Martins began to disturb Gastón Olveira, who was responsible for deactivating a couple of unbeatable chances. The flow of situations did nothing but start and the Uruguayan goalkeeper went on to have quite a lot of work on the end of the first stage with the insistence of the Bolivian battering ram.
Already in the complementary Cerro Porteño added more aggressiveness to its proposal and he approached the tie with a bombshell from Claudio Aquino that took paint off the crossbar of the south goal.
The match became quite difficult as a result of a series of incidents in the stands, and with the injury of the Olimpia goalkeeper, who retired in the 70th minute.
And parity arrived. Alfredo Aguilar was in the goal when the Bolivian Martins defined as he knows how for 1-1 (71′) and total delirium in General Pablo Rojas.
