After a rather tough play, Almeirim's Luís Borges got a free kick in the 31st minute. 32 minutes into the match, António Nunes sent off a long shot that looked like it was going straight into the goal, but because Ricardo Amaral threw himself in his full length he managed to grip the ball by the left post, and there was no goal for António Nunes this time.

But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Emílio Dantas couldn't finish the play.
