Faced with good Senegalese intentions and despite this turnover of Ngalla to avoid cumulative boxes, the Roja cracked for the second time. This time, it is Sidy Fall who doubles the putting by taking advantage of a pass of Mandione Diagne but especially of a hand fault of the opposing goalkeeper (2-0, 1st/04’43 ”). On the Chilean side, the rare flashesT came from Daniel Durand or Hector Tobar, who reduced the gap to 3-1 (2nd/09’06 “), shortly after this sublime whim by Jean Ninou Diatta to register 3-1 Senegalese and the first of his two goals in the match (2nd/10’46 ”).
