Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Anibal Lluques kicked off to start the match. After a defensive mix-up in Estación Q.'s zone, Maximino Lorenz stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Arif Nihat Yıldıray came out of the goal and Maximino Lorenz tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Estación Q.'s attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Rainer Nõmmeots in the 9th minute. The corner went over the outstretched arms of Q. T. I.'s goalie and right to Paulinho Gonçalves. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. Q. T. I.'s manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. Paulinho Gonçalves who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 12thth minute tested the skills of Paulo Txatxu when he managed to save the team from getting behind. After 18 played minutes, Q. T. I.'s Bernardino Gonsalve shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Arif Nihat Yıldıray came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Q. T. I. reached it. After 23 played minutes Q. T. I. got a freekick which was hit by Horacio Dolfo. 25 minutes into the match, Q. T. I.'s goalkeeper Paulo Txatxu had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Paulinho Gonçalves. Arif Nihat Yıldıray made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Maximino Lorenz in the 26th minute of play. A sloppy throw-in by Bernardino Gonsalve in the 28th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Estación Q.'s Rainer Nõmmeots. With a little luck, Q. T. I.'s Paulo Txatxu got control of the ball when Paulinho Gonçalves tried to sneak it across the goal line. 33 minutes into the match, Paulinho Gonçalves notched a goal, 1-0, to the right of Q. T. I.'s Paulo Txatxu. Paulo Txatxu was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Q. T. I.'s Paulo Txatxu played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Paulinho Gonçalves in the 36th minute of play. Anibal Lluques sent away a hard shot on goal in the 38th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. An unexpectedly hard shot by Anibal Lluques in the 41st minute of play forced Estación Q.'s goalkeeper Arif Nihat Yıldıray to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Paulo Txatxu showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Paulinho Gonçalves, who was totally free with the ball in the 44th minute. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

The wind increased when Tadeo Lesardo made the kick off in the second half. In the 55th minute the ball was on its way in behind Q. T. I.'s goalkeeper Paulo Txatxu, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. The supporters of Q. T. I. booed when Estación Q. was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 57 match minutes in a wonderful position. Nils-Erik Kellman didn't get a good kick on the ball. Q. T. I.'s Casimiro Guillelmus was substituted for Julian Raymundo. In the 69th minute Tadeo Lesardo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Paulo Txatxu saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Paulo Txatxu took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Tadeo Lesardo, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Paulo Txatxu showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Tadeo Lesardo in the 81st minute of the match. Leopoldo Vermudo kicked well hit freekick during the 82nd minute of the match. Q. T. I.'s Paulo Txatxu played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Ferenc Puskás in the 86th minute of play. Paulo Txatxu made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Ferenc Puskás in the 87th minute of play. A collision led to Estación Q. getting a freekick after 92 minutes play. Yuan Yuan Hong hit a great ball. Q. T. I.'s Paulo Txatxu played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Aurelio Mincho in the 95th minute of play. Paulo Txatxu took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Ferenc Puskás, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The second half was just like the first, even and exciting.
