Viveros, the leading scorer, was once again the most insistent, although he repeated his falls in the area asking for penalties that the central judge did not buy. Diego Ruiz.
The clearest for the capital team was a great shot by Lloreda, who after a hitch took a right hand and the ball bounced upright.
