Kobra Arena
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Toninho Loureiro kicked off to start the match. Silvinho Lara received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 8th minute. Agnaldo Eger tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Osmar Toscano recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 10th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After a defensive mix-up in KOBRA FC's zone, Luís Eduardo Mangueira stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Agnaldo Eger came out of the goal and Luís Eduardo Mangueira tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The audience was convinced that Toninho Loureiro's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Agnaldo Eger was relentless in the 13th minute of the game. Luís Eduardo Mangueira struck a weak shot in the 14th minute. Agnaldo Eger didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Acegua. In the 16th match minute, Acegua was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Fabrício Cruz to maneuver through the defense. When Osmar Toscano came up free with the goalie in the 21st minute, the Acegua fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Osmar Toscano couldn't finish the play. Luís Eduardo Mangueira took the ball and in the 32 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Agnaldo Eger. Agnaldo Eger dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-2. After 38 minutes, Gerson Dionísio made it 1-2 with a short kick to the right side. Acegua's Raúl Corrêa tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. If Toninho Loureiro had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 43rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Luís Eduardo Mangueira struck a weak shot in the 47th minute. Agnaldo Eger didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Acegua. After the first half Acegua were leading 1-2. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Celsinho Campidelis to make the kick off. Gerson Dionísio fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 52nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Raúl Corrêa having to interfere. José Maria Veiga kicked well hit freekick during the 53rd minute of the match. Acegua's Luís Eduardo Mangueira got a good chance for a goal in the 57th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Luís Eduardo Mangueira succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 1-3 in the 59th playminute. Agnaldo Eger acted impressively in front of the goal and made a superb save when he, in the 73rd minute, took the ball on the long shot from Fabrício Cruz. Toninho Loureiro's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Agnaldo Eger read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 74th minute of play. Joaquim Santana kicked well hit freekick during the 78th minute of the match. In the 78th minute, Silvinho Lara sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and KOBRA FC's Agnaldo Eger didn't even have to move. After some careless play in the Acegua defense, Celsinho Campidelis kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Raúl Corrêa. The Acegua fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Raúl Corrêa should have stopped the shot. In the 88th minute, Gerson Dionísio ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Raúl Corrêa was frozen by the shot and now it was 3-3.
