Spectators: 7185 (Terracing: 5391, Seating: 1652, VIP seats: 142) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Oswaldo Paulista made the kick off which started today's match. In the 3rd minute, Fabrício Fernandez hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Oswaldo Paulista in the 9thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Gualter Queirós, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. In the 11th minute the ball was on its way in behind MZ 13 de Julho's goalkeeper Fábio Barbosa, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. After a rather tough play, Soberano F.C's Nicolas Quirino got a free kick in the 14th minute. Afonso Carioca received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 17th minute. Gualter Queirós tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. José Carlos Gomes sent away a hard shot on goal in the 19th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Fábio Barbosa took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Jorge Velasco, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The supporters of Soberano F.C booed when MZ 13 de Julho was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 26 match minutes in a wonderful position. Afonso Carioca didn't get a good kick on the ball. Soberano F.C's Gualter Queirós proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 29th minute of the match, managed to save Soberano F.C from getting a goal against them.

Alfredinho Matos hit a great freekick 32 minutes into the match. Jorge Velasco fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 35th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Fábio Barbosa having to interfere. In the 37th minute Jorge Velasco shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Fábio Barbosa saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Jorge Velasco had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 41st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Fábio Barbosa made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Teodoro Rodrigues in the 43rd minute of play. After having played for 45 minutes, Jorge Velasco managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Soberano F.C's supporters crossed their fingers, but Jorge Velasco was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Fábio Barbosa made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Teodoro Rodrigues in the 46th minute of play. In the 47th minute, Jorge Velasco got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Jorge Velasco to make the kick off. After 55 minutes MZ 13 de Julho's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Rafinha Barros who took care of the corner kick. Dráuzio Silveira got a throw-in 57 minutes in the game and the ball was received by Samuca Arce. Jorge Velasco received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 58th minute.

In the 70th minute, Jorge Velasco got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. After some fancy dribbling in the 80th minute, Jorge Velasco managed to get in a good position for a shot. Soberano F.C's supporters rose to their feet, but Jorge Velasco was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Fábio Barbosa breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. MZ 13 de Julho's Fábio Barbosa played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Jorge Velasco in the 93rd minute of play. Despite being the better team, Soberano F.C failed to find the winning goal and were forced to settle for a single point.
