How to play this passage? It seems impossible!!!

Hi!!

How could you play this passage? Look, here's the score:

https://www.cndepianojjcuevas.com/partituras/M._de_Elias_-_Sonata_Breve.pdf

At bar 8, how it's possible to do that? i mean, you have to play an octave D with the right hand, and with the left hand an octave F, how do i play the third F#-A# that is between? Impossibru!

Thanks in advance. :D

m.d. - (mano dextera i believe? opposite of you see m.s -of mani sinistera (sinister=evil=left) Right hand indication, score tells you to pedal the bar let the d oactave sing, let it go hit those inner chords as written.
the beginning of the measure you're tying from the previous meaure in bass, you should  have your left hand free to hit the first third then move it to the c# octave while the RH finishes the inner voice passage

that's how i'd handle it.
