Spectators: 7087 (Terracing: 5424, Seating: 1663, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Luan da Cunha made the kick off which started today's match. Luan da Cunha sent away a hard shot on goal in the 3rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. An unexpectedly hard shot by José Maria Cruz in the 8th minute of play forced Jurumirim SC's goalkeeper Oséias de Azevedo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After a defensive mix-up in Jurumirim SC's zone, Eusébio Paes stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Oséias de Azevedo came out of the goal and Eusébio Paes tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Victor Torres recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 14th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Oséias de Azevedo showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Eusébio Paes in the 17th minute of the match. Oséias de Azevedo took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Eusébio Paes, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Edu Albuquerque stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Luan da Cunha's shot from short distance in the 20th minute. 22 minutes into the game, Pulinopolis's Eusébio Paes nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Oséias de Azevedo made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-1. An unexpectedly hard shot by Eusébio Paes in the 28th minute of play forced Jurumirim SC's goalkeeper Oséias de Azevedo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Donato Valle hit a great freekick 32 minutes into the match. In the 34thth minute of the game Tiago Gabriel Botelho who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Jurumirim SC's Oséias de Azevedo was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Eusébio Paes sent away a hard shot on goal in the 36th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Victor Torres could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 40th minute of the match, but Edu Albuquerque made a huge save. 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 Eusébio Paes made a kick off. Jean Moreira's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Edu Albuquerque read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 56th minute of play. 59 minutes into the match, Luan da Cunha had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Edu Albuquerque. Pulinopolis's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Luan da Cunha was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1. After 66 played minutes, Pulinopolis's Humberto Lara shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Oséias de Azevedo 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 Pulinopolis reached it. In the 68th minute, Victor Torres left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Jurumirim SC fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-1. After having played for 71 minutes, Luan da Cunha managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Jurumirim SC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Luan da Cunha was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Jean Moreira might have been able to make a better finish in the 74th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Edu Albuquerque. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Jean Moreira ran back to his position shaking his head. Victor Torres scored 3-1 in the 76th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Edu Albuquerque, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. If Victor Torres had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 79th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Edu Albuquerque showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Jean Moreira in the 83rd minute of the match. When Victor Torres came up free with the goalie in the 85th minute, the Jurumirim SC fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Victor Torres couldn't finish the play. Edu Albuquerque stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Luan da Cunha's shot from short distance in the 87th minute. Luan da Cunha fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 89th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Edu Albuquerque having to interfere. In the 91st minute, Victor Torres made a precise shot to the right of Edu Albuquerque. Pulinopolis's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 4-1. Tiago Gabriel Botelho struck a weak shot in the 95th minute. Oséias de Azevedo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Pulinopolis. Jurumirim SC walked away with a well-earned victory that was much celebrated by the crowd.
