Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Lúcio Nascimento got the match started through his kick off. If Beto Severo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 3rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Ruy Alcântara fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 6th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Percival da Mata having to interfere. Percival da Mata showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Romário de Lima, who was totally free with the ball in the 12th minute. Humberto de Sousa hit a great freekick 16 minutes into the match. Moju EC's Percival da Mata played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Romário de Lima in the 18th minute of play. Lúcio Nascimento struck a weak shot in the 23rd minute. Paulo José França didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Moju EC. In the 26th minute Carlinhos Torres shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Paulo José França saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

After a rather tough play, Moju EC's Tiaguinho Novaes got a free kick in the 29th minute. In the 46th minute, Tiaguinho Novaes made a precise shot to the right of Paulo José França. VECTRA FUTEBOL CLUBE's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 2-1. Af the end of the first half the score was 2-1. The first half had gone as expected for the home team.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Romário de Lima to make the kick off. In the 56thth minute of the game Lúcio Nascimento who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but VECTRA FUTEBOL CLUBE's Paulo José França was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball.

With a little luck, VECTRA FUTEBOL CLUBE's Paulo José França got control of the ball when Carlinhos Torres tried to sneak it across the goal line.

Lúcio Nascimento blasted a shot towards the goal in the 85th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Paulo José França having to make a save. When Gustavo Romero fell near the penalty area in the 86th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored VECTRA FUTEBOL CLUBE's protests and gave Gustavo Romero a yellow card for diving instead. A collision led to VECTRA FUTEBOL CLUBE getting a freekick after 86 minutes play. Gustavo Romero hit a great ball. A hard shot 91 in the game by Carlinhos Torres from a close distance when the talented Paulo José França managed to make a qualified save. VECTRA FUTEBOL CLUBE's players were relieved. Moju EC's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
