An unexpectedly hard shot by Gil Brito in the 4th minute of play forced SC Guirela's goalkeeper Ricardo Neto to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The audience was convinced that Gil Brito's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Ricardo Neto was relentless in the 5th minute of the game. Joaquim Valente received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 8th minute. Miguel Barbosa tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Inácio Rocha kicked well hit freekick during the 16th minute of the match. In the 29thth minute of the game Joaquim Valente who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Morlenas's Miguel Barbosa was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. After some fancy dribbling in the 41st minute, Armindo Pinho managed to get in a good position for a shot. SC Guirela's supporters rose to their feet, but Armindo Pinho was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Miguel Barbosa breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. If Gil Brito had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The fans had the chance to grab some refreshments as the whistle went for half-time. The score stood at 0-0 after a close first half.
