The team's decision to use a mixed lineup had been questioned by coach Eduardo Domínguez, who said that they knew it wouldn't always work. Despite this, the team maintained their style of play, but struggled to create scoring opportunities. They suffered 23 shots on goal and managed only four shots of their own, with Natanael only shooting in the 42nd minute of the first half.

The team's defense was also under pressure, with the team's laterals failing to contain the opposition's attacks. The team's attack was also unable to create any real scoring chances, with the team's midfield struggling to create consistency. The team's decision to make changes to their lineup in the second half, including bringing on Fred and Cassierra, did help to increase the team's possession of the ball, but ultimately, the team was unable to react to the opposition's goals.
