Maracanã
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Jonathan Fonseca made the kick off which started today's match. José Vítor Rosado sent away a hard shot on goal in the 5th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When the match had gone on for 23 minutes, Tolek Zbydniewski put it in 0-1 from a short distance just to the right of Luís Paulo Romero. Artur Maciejewski made a fantastic save in the 33rd minute, when Zé Pedro Montenegro sent off a good shot on target. Luís Paulo Romero took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Jedrzej Dudzik, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 38 minutes Flying Dutch's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Grzegorz Misiorowski who took care of the corner kick. Artur Maciejewski took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Victor de Salles, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Victor de Salles had several of the A.A. Pędzący Bimber's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 39 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 1-1 score and a disappointed Artur Maciejewski as he didn't even see the shot coming. 43 minutes into the match, A.A. Pędzący Bimber's goal looked a bit too open when Tiago Correia came free, but Artur Maciejewski reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Tolek Zbydniewski to strike the kick off in the second half. After 51st play minutes Jonathan Fonseca shot 2-1, a short shot which went by Artur Maciejewski and just under the crossbar into goal. Thiago de Mendonça, 55 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. Tymoteusz Jaruzelski kicked well hit freekick during the 56th minute of the match. Thiago de Mendonça struck a weak shot in the 57th minute. Artur Maciejewski didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Flying Dutch. Thiago de Mendonça's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Artur Maciejewski read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 59th minute of play. After a rather tough play, A.A. Pędzący Bimber's Zachary Wolczewski got a free kick in the 60th minute. 62 minutes into the game, Victor de Salles was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Flying Dutch's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave A.A. Pędzący Bimber the free kick. Jonathan Fonseca took the ball and in the 67 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Artur Maciejewski. Artur Maciejewski dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 3-1. With a little luck, Flying Dutch's Luís Paulo Romero got control of the ball when Tolek Zbydniewski tried to sneak it across the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Victor de Salles in the 81st minute of play forced A.A. Pędzący Bimber's goalkeeper Artur Maciejewski to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Tiago Correia received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 82nd minute. Artur Maciejewski tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Tymoteusz Jaruzelski kicked well hit freekick during the 83rd minute of the match. When Jonathan Fonseca fell near the penalty area in the 90th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Flying Dutch's protests and gave Jonathan Fonseca a yellow card for diving instead. The supporters of A.A. Pędzący Bimber booed when Flying Dutch was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 90 match minutes in a wonderful position. Jonathan Fonseca didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 91st minute, Jedrzej Dudzik 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. Wlodzimierz Rostow fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 94th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Luís Paulo Romero having to interfere. The crowd rose to their feet and cheered when the referee blew the final whistle. Flying Dutch had won after a very even match.
