Spectators: 47 (Terracing: 36, Seating: 11, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Visen Allu started the match with the kick off. A sloppy throw-in by Fabricio Andrade in the 5th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Altermundi FC's Seran Torrijo. 6 minutes into the match, Visen Allu had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Wilson Amorim. Portugal's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Visen Allu was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. The Altermundi FC fans' excitement grew in the 11th match minute when Altermundi FC's Visen Allu looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-2 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. Visen Allu sent away a hard shot on goal in the 16th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Wilson Amorim made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Visen Allu in the 19th minute of play. Candido Piedra showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Graciano Coutinho, who was totally free with the ball in the 24th minute. Wilson Amorim took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Sergiu Zgrăbunţa, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 28 minutes into the match, Altermundi FC's goal looked a bit too open when Daniel Pimentel came free, but Candido Piedra reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Portugal's Daniel Pimentel quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Disvandis Larraona, made in the 38th minute of the game. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Caetano Moreira in the 46th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Candido Piedra prevented the ball from getting in the gole. Disappointed in the 1-3 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Viriato Moura to make the kick off. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Felipe Barreto in the 53rd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Candido Piedra saved Altermundi FC from getting behind. In the 54th minute Viriato Moura shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Candido Piedra saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Sergiu Zgrăbunţa was in a good position and managed to take a shot, but he missed just to the outside of the post. In the 62nd minute the ball was on its way in behind Portugal's goalkeeper Wilson Amorim, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. An unexpectedly hard shot by Viriato Moura in the 70th minute of play forced Altermundi FC's goalkeeper Candido Piedra to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Portugal's Felipinho Amorim was substituted for Felipe Barreto. Portugal's Bartolomeu Dias was substituted for Viriato Moura. A collision led to Altermundi FC getting a freekick after 81 minutes play. Disvandis Larraona hit a great ball. Altermundi FC's Visen Allu got a good chance for a goal in the 84th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Candido Piedra showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Bartolomeu Dias in the 86th minute of the match. Visen Allu blasted a shot towards the goal in the 91st minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Wilson Amorim having to make a save. 91 minutes into the match, Portugal's goal looked a bit too open when Visen Allu came free, but Wilson Amorim reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The supporters of Portugal booed when Altermundi FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 94 match minutes in a wonderful position. Henk Everts didn't get a good kick on the ball. Fabricio Andrade kicked well hit freekick during the 96th minute of the match. When the final whistle was heard the away supporters stood up and showed their joy.
