Spectators: 153 (Terracing: 115, Seating: 35, VIP seats: 3) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Sydney Rosa made the kick off which started today's match. A collision led to Buritama Sports getting a freekick after 4 minutes play. Dedé Camargo hit a great ball. Afonsinho Donatello took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 5th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Vinícius Couto. Buritama Sports's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. In the 9th minute, Geovani Borges 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. 17 minutes into the match, Buritama Sports's goal looked a bit too open when Geovani Borges came free, but Vinícius Couto reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Gino Azevedo's late challenge caught a Figueira SC FSCMZ's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Gino Azevedo helped the player get up and apologised. After a rather tough play, Buritama Sports's Gino Azevedo got a free kick in the 23rd minute. In the 26th minute, Décio Quirino made a precise shot to the right of Marcelo Medeiros. Figueira SC FSCMZ's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-1. The audience thought a goal was coming when Evandro do Valle got free with Vinícius Couto in the 31st minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Vinícius Couto showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Geovani Borges, who was totally free with the ball in the 39th minute. 41 minutes into the game, Sydney Rosa was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Buritama Sports's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Figueira SC FSCMZ the free kick. In the 41st minute, Sydney Rosa hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 42nd minute Geovani Borges shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Vinícius Couto saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Luiz Guilherme Paiva stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. 51 minutes into the match, Buritama Sports's goal looked a bit too open when Geovani Borges came free, but Vinícius Couto reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 57th minute, Buritama Sports's Túlio Peixoto dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 1-2. Luiz Guilherme Paiva's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Vinícius Couto read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 61st minute of play. Luiz Guilherme Paiva struck a weak shot in the 63rd minute. Vinícius Couto didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Figueira SC FSCMZ. Vinícius Couto took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Geovani Borges, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 66 minutes into the game, Buritama Sports's Sydney Rosa nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Marcelo Medeiros made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 1-3. Marcelo Medeiros was out of position in the 74 minute of play, and Décio Quirino capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Décio Quirino really showed his touch with that goal: 1-4. Renatinho Rodrigues charged in rather forcefully in the 81st minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Renatinho Rodrigues the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Renatinho Rodrigues hit a great freekick 81 minutes into the match. If Luiz Guilherme Paiva had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 85th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After having played for 87 minutes, Geovani Borges managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Figueira SC FSCMZ's supporters crossed their fingers, but Geovani Borges was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Renatinho Rodrigues sent away a hard shot on goal in the 94th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. José Pedro Tróia kicked well hit freekick during the 95th minute of the match. The away crowd were delighted with the way their team had played and cheered loudly when the final whistle sounded. Buritama Sports walked away with the win, even though the match was close until the end.
