Spectators: 8015 (Terracing: 6013, Seating: 1843, VIP seats: 159) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. J.J J.J. started the match with the kick off. In the 4th minute Gabriel Távora shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Paco Zamora saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 8 minutes into the match, Gabriel Távora had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Paco Zamora. GALATASARAY O.Z.'s manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Gabriel Távora was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-0. After having played for 11 minutes, J.J J.J. managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. GALATASARAY O.Z.'s supporters crossed their fingers, but J.J J.J. was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 15 minutes into the match, Terceirense F.C.'s goal looked a bit too open when J.J J.J. came free, but Cássio Baptista reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The GALATASARAY O.Z. fans' excitement grew in the 17th match minute when GALATASARAY O.Z.'s J.J J.J. looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 1-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. Zarco Sarmento kicked well hit freekick during the 20th minute of the match. In the 22nd minute of the match Ludomir Domin sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Cássio Baptista skillfully saved the ball. After a rather tough play, GALATASARAY O.Z.'s Lucas Torreira got a free kick in the 22nd minute. J.J J.J. sent away a hard shot on goal in the 25th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Alexsandro Romero had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 27th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Aldo Anjos during the 29th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. The supporters of GALATASARAY O.Z. booed when Terceirense F.C. was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 29 match minutes in a wonderful position. Aldo Anjos didn't get a good kick on the ball. After a rather tough play, GALATASARAY O.Z.'s Felipe Pernambucano got a free kick in the 36th minute. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

51 minutes into the match, Terceirense F.C.'s goal looked a bit too open when Emrullah Toygun came free, but Cássio Baptista reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Gabriel Távora recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 56th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. The throw-in from Viriato Semedo in the 64th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by GALATASARAY O.Z.'s Baki Koyas. Terceirense F.C.'s Romário Fontes was substituted for Gustavo Amorim. A sloppy throw-in by Lucas Torreira in the 73rd minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Terceirense F.C.'s Ricardo Silveira. In the 74th minute Anselmo Baldaia shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Paco Zamora saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Cássio Baptista made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from J.J J.J. in the 80th minute of play. Terceirense F.C.'s Cássio Baptista played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by J.J J.J. in the 82nd minute of play. The audience was convinced that Anselmo Baldaia's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Paco Zamora was relentless in the 92nd minute of the game. A throw-in in the 95th minute of the game was made by Lucas Torreira with Emrullah Toygun as target, who quickly passed the ball forward.
