Spectators: 7216 (Terracing: 5616, Seating: 1500, VIP seats: 100) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Cornelio Eneas got the match started through his kick off. When Angelo Guerra came up free with the goalie in the 13th minute, the Jereba 4EVER 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 Angelo Guerra couldn't finish the play. Angelo Guerra took the ball and in the 17 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Hilario Lucian. Hilario Lucian dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-2. Cornelio Eneas could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 22nd minute of the match, but Dieguinho Viana made a huge save. A collision led to Jereba 4EVER getting a freekick after 23 minutes play. Narciso Dionísio hit a great ball. 25 minutes into the match, C.A. Identidad Soberana's goal looked a bit too open when Manoel Trancoso came free, but Hilario Lucian reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Hilario Lucian took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Angelo Guerra, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 30 played minutes C.A. Identidad Soberana got a freekick which was hit by Rigoberto Quintin. In the 30th minute, Joel Machado hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Hilario Lucian showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Manoel Trancoso in the 32nd minute of the match. Dino Campidelis sent away a hard shot on goal in the 37th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Hilario Lucian came out of the goal in the 39th minute to try and stop a shot by Jereba 4EVER's Manoel Trancoso. But to his dismay, Manoel Trancoso quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-3. In the 43rd minute Cornelio Eneas shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Dieguinho Viana saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 44 minutes into the game, Angelo Guerra cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-4. Hilario Lucian was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-4 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Manoel Trancoso stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. C.A. Identidad Soberana's Hilario Lucian played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Joel Machado in the 52nd minute of play. Dino Campidelis took the ball and in the 55 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Hilario Lucian. Hilario Lucian dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-5. In the 63rd minute, Manoel Trancoso 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. Manoel Trancoso could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 75th minute of the match, but Hilario Lucian made a huge save. When C.A. Identidad Soberana's Cornelio Eneas in the 76th minute got a chance for a shot 76th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Jereba 4EVER's goalie prevented a goal. The supporters of C.A. Identidad Soberana booed when Jereba 4EVER was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 78 match minutes in a wonderful position. Manoel Trancoso didn't get a good kick on the ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Angelo Guerra in the 84th minute of play forced C.A. Identidad Soberana's goalkeeper Hilario Lucian to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 96 minutes into the match, Jereba 4EVER's goal looked a bit too open when Gogo Estevon came free, but Dieguinho Viana reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. When the match was over Jereba 4EVER could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than C.A. Identidad Soberana throughout the match.
