In a very dangerous position, a player in Pedroucos fell when an opponent tried to get the ball from him in the 24th minute. Penalty! The goalkeeper, Aprígio Candal, was totally fooled by F.C.

Ameal Regado booed when Pedroucos was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 29 match minutes in a wonderful position. Aparício Quirino didn't get a good kick on the ball.

F.C. Ameal Regado's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Laureano Linhares in the 50th minute.

The wind increased when Vladimiro Calado made the kick off in the second half. Vladimiro Calado recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 67th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If José Calado had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 69th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 74 minutes, José Calado made it 2-1 with a short kick to the right side. Pedroucos's Aprígio Candal tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. The audience thought a goal was coming when Valentim Malheiro got free with Anselmo Matias in the 79th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. After some fancy dribbling in the 82nd minute, Carlos Bacelar managed to get in a good position for a shot. Pedroucos's supporters rose to their feet, but Carlos Bacelar was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Anselmo Matias breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After a defensive mix-up in F.C. Ameal Regado's zone, Valentim Malheiro stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Anselmo Matias came out of the goal and Valentim Malheiro tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After a rather tough play, F.C. Ameal Regado's Leal Eanes got a free kick in the 84th minute. Valentim Malheiro could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 86th minute of the match, but Anselmo Matias made a huge save. José Calado struck a weak shot in the 91st minute. Aprígio Candal didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for F.C. Ameal Regado. In the 95th minute, Laureano Linhares hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After having played for 99 minutes, José Calado managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. F.C. Ameal Regado's supporters crossed their fingers, but José Calado was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. F.C. Ameal Regado fully deserved thier win.
