booked: Morales; Serv�n, Caba�as, Bord�n 
sent off: Bord�n (22), Caba�as (23) 
referees: Luis Alvarez, Florentino Fern�ndez, Ruben Rossi (Uruguay) 
attendance: 2.600 

x  The match was suspended at 22 when Ita Ybat� tried to abandon the field due to disagreeing 
   with referee's decision to expulse Bord�n. However, the organizers convinced the Paraguayans 
   to stay, but the goal-keeper Caba�as insulted the referee and was sent off. This led to 
   another attempt by the visitors to quit the match, and the referee finished it. Again the 
   Paraguayans' decision was modified, but it was too late, the referee had already decided 
   that neither he nor his assistants would continue the game. Libertad were the champions, but 
   not because of the Paraguayan team pityful behaviour, but because it was the best team of 
   the tournament. 

Topscorers: 
Alberto Tintel (ITA YBAT�)           6 goals 
Federico Ferrer (ALUMNI)             4 goals
