Spectators: 47 (Terracing: 36, Seating: 11, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Zoltán Tálas kicked off to start the match. 4 minutes had been played when some careless play by KINGS FC's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Hermenegildo Rebelo was slow to take the kick. During this time Bacardi Black Bats's players had a chance to rest. If Quentin Platt had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 7th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Leal Simões made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Moisés Queiroga in the 23rd minute of play. Artur Brudzisz showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Christian Szumlanski, who was totally free with the ball in the 24th minute.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Moisés Queiroga to make the kick off.
