Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Joel Dantas made the kick off which started today's match. After a rather tough play, SC Lavaceira's Eusébio Jesus got a free kick in the 13th minute. 14 minutes into the match, SC Moes's Augusto Figueiredo broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide. A fine initiative that could have resulted in a goal. Joel Dantas received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 21st minute. Alberto Amorim tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. With his leg Alberto Amorim managed to avoid a goal in the 22ndth minute, when SC Moes's Adelino Fontes fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. 28 minutes into the match, SC Lavaceira's Gustavo Torres sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Afonso Setúbal narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Joel Dantas blasted a shot towards the goal in the 31st minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Alberto Amorim having to make a save. If Gustavo Torres had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 40th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

51 minutes into the match, Gustavo Torres had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Afonso Setúbal. SC Moes's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Gustavo Torres was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Lucas Ramos during the 53rd minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. Lucas Ramos hit a great freekick 54 minutes into the match. If Gustavo Torres had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 59th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, SC Moes's Xavier Cruz got a free kick in the 60th minute. 71 minutes into the match, SC Lavaceira's goal looked a bit too open when Joel Dantas came free, but Alberto Amorim reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Joel Dantas took the ball and in the 74 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Alberto Amorim. Alberto Amorim dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-1. In the 78th minute, Rui Machado 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. Afonso Setúbal made a fantastic save in the 87th minute, when Rui Machado sent off a good shot on target. With a little luck, SC Moes's Afonso Setúbal got control of the ball when Rui Machado tried to sneak it across the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 94th minute, Rui Machado managed to get in a good position for a shot. SC Lavaceira's supporters rose to their feet, but Rui Machado was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Afonso Setúbal breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. The SC Lavaceira supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing SC Lavaceira would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
