Iván Morales opened the scoring for Sarmiento in the 21st minute, and Mateo Silvetti equalized for Newell's in the 29th. The match concluded with a draw despite Newell's efforts in the second half.
Meanwhile, in Alta Córdoba, Instituto and Rosario Central failed to break the deadlock and finished 0-0. During the first 45 minutes, scoring opportunities were scarce.

The draw left both teams dissatisfied, moving them away from their goals in the tournament.
