In the first chukker, La Dolfina Sancor Seguros team was overwhelmed by Las Monjitas, who with two brilliant initial chukkers entered the third chukkers with a difference of three goals. From there, La Dolfina improved their defence and six goals from Adolfo Cambiaso in the next three chukkers put them ahead in the game.
