After having played for 13 minutes, Cícero Cruz managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

In the 17th minute, Mané de Brito got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Nildo Macedo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 18th minute. Samuca Soeiro tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Joélson Munhoz to make the kick off. Joélson Munhoz did some fancy footwork in front of goal and succeeded to deceive the defenders so he could slam the ball in 0-1 to the left of a surprised Frederico Fonseca 53 minutes into the match. After some careless play in the Campeche FC defense, Cícero Cruz kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Samuca Soeiro. The Campeche FC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Samuca Soeiro should have stopped the shot. An unexpectedly hard shot by Nildo Macedo in the 68th minute of play forced Campeche FC's goalkeeper Samuca Soeiro to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. When Campeche FC's Joélson Munhoz in the 74th minute got a chance for a shot 74th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Xipoko's goalie prevented a goal. After a rather tough play, Campeche FC's José Paulo Romero got a free kick in the 76th minute. In the 77th minute of the match José Vítor da Cunha shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Samuca Soeiro showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. In the 82nd minute Valdo Carioca shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Samuca Soeiro saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Campeche FC's Samuca Soeiro played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Cícero Cruz in the 86th minute of play. In the 93rd match minute, Xipoko was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Nilson Salles to maneuver through the defense. If Víktor Cerezo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 95th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Xipoko fully deserved thier win.
