Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Abel Ramalho to make the kick off. German Eskuin made in the 52nd minute of the game a sloppy throw-in which Tirso Isasaga however managed to control. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Adrian Bobeanu in the 55th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Andres Ekhi saved Ricart Futebol Clube from getting behind.

When Tirso Isasaga came up free with the goalie in the 71st minute, the Olympique Gdynia 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 Tirso Isasaga couldn't finish the play. Ricart Futebol Clube's Eusebio Hori was substituted for Abel Ramalho. 75 minutes had been played when some careless play by Olympique Gdynia's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Doron Bantz was slow to take the kick. During this time Ricart Futebol Clube's players had a chance to rest. Eusebio Hori sent away a hard shot on goal in the 82nd minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal.
