Spectators: 7229 (Terracing: 5423, Seating: 1663, VIP seats: 143) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Frédson Linhares started the match with the kick off. Dênis Freire scored 0-1 in the 3rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Elpidio Edur, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. The supporters of The Divine Knights booed when S.E PALMEIRAS was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 5 match minutes in a wonderful position. Telmo Galvão didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 6th minute Dênis Freire shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Elpidio Edur saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 10th minute Arthur Coutinho shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Elpidio Edur saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

In the 30th match minute, S.E PALMEIRAS was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Telmo Galvão to maneuver through the defense. The audience was convinced that Dênis Freire's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Elpidio Edur was relentless in the 35th minute of the game. If Frédson Linhares had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. 0-2 became the score in the 40th minute when Dino Ferraz elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. Murillo Vidal hit a great freekick 44 minutes into the match. After the first half The Divine Knights were leading 0-2.

With an extended leg and a bit of luck Elpidio Edur prevented the ball from getting in the gole.
