It was the first dual of the season between Pieres and Adolfo Cambiaso. Meanwhile at the opening of the day, on court 2, LD World Polo League won the subsidiary, after beating Tortugas with great authority by 13-1. LD World Polo League faced no complications to break the young turtles' team by a great difference of 12 goals, all thanks to great teamwork in which its four members stood out, each doing their job.

On the main day despite Diego Cavanagh’s early penalty goal, Ellerstina started much better and with Facundo Pieres, managed to get 4-1 up on the scoreboard. That was the moment when Adolfo Camiaso took the reins of the game, but his team on foot and led La Dolfina to achieve an exceptional 8-1, between the middle of the second set, and the beginning of the sixth, to leave the score 9-5, almost defining the match. Four goals of his authorship, plus three of Cavanagh and remaining of Zubia were too much for Ellerstina who largely depended on Facundo Pieres, who could do little for the trophy to travel to General Rodriguez .
