Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Gil Brito kicked off to start the match. When Alexandre Abreu fell near the penalty area in the 7th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored SC Coico's protests and gave Alexandre Abreu a yellow card for diving instead. When Filipe Baptista came up free with the goalie in the 11th minute, the SC Coico fans jumped to their feet.

Gil Brito kicked well hit freekick during the 13th minute of the match. In the 17th minute, Filipe Baptista made a precise shot to the right of Adolfo Costa.

A very good chance. Carvalheda's Adolfo Costa played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Filipe Baptista in the 22nd minute of play. The audience was convinced that Cândido Baptista's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Adolfo Costa was relentless in the 23rd minute of the game. Diogo Magalhães took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Gil Brito, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.
