Moju Arena
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Tales Vieira kicked off to start the match.

Mombaim EC's supporters rose to their feet, but Armindo Pernambucano was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Dudu Ramalho breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. The audience was convinced that Oswaldo Cardoso's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Dudu Ramalho was relentless in the 15th minute of the game. Geovanni Lira hit a great freekick 18 minutes into the match. In the 19thth minute of the game Tales Vieira who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Mombaim EC's Silas Moreno was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. 20 minutes into the match, Moju's goal looked a bit too open when Armindo Pernambucano came free, but Dudu Ramalho reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Disappointed in the 0-1 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Armindo Pernambucano made a kick off. Teodoro Prata received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 52nd minute.

The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Vitinho Pernambucano recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 56th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After 58 minutes, Armindo Pernambucano made it 0-2 with a short kick to the right side.
