Ivan Vilhena started the match with the kick off. When Ɍυƒυs™'s Adriano Vale in the 4th minute got a chance for a shot 4th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye MZ Fénix's goalie prevented a goal. After a rather tough play, MZ Fénix's Cai Yuan Yuan got a free kick in the 5th minute. Aras Görkem Kaymaz's shot when he came free in front of the goal in the 8thth minute, 周益亦 skillfully showed off with a save to what seemed to be an obvious goal.
