Estadio Touria
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Luís Viana made the kick off which started today's match. After 3 played minutes, Touria's Humberto Costa shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Rodrigo Faria came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Touria reached it. Miguel Moutinho hit a great freekick 4 minutes into the match. If Luís Viana had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 15th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 21 minutes into the match, Touria's goal looked a bit too open when Luís Viana came free, but Rodrigo Lima reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Luís Viana took the ball and in the 23 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Rodrigo Lima. Rodrigo Lima dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-1. Luís Viana sent away a hard shot on goal in the 28th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Pachecos's Eusébio Sousa got a good chance for a goal in the 38th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 43rd minute, Miguel Moutinho 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. Eusébio Sousa received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 44th minute. Rodrigo Lima tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 46th minute, Diamantino Rocha hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 47th minute, one of Touria:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Touria. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 0-2.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Manuel Moutinho made a kick off. Rodrigo Lima made a fantastic save in the 55th minute, when Miguel Moutinho sent off a good shot on target. The audience thought a goal was coming when Eusébio Sousa got free with Rodrigo Lima in the 65th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Rodrigo Faria came out of the goal in the 70th minute to try and stop a shot by Touria's Nuno Lisboa. But to his dismay, Nuno Lisboa quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-2. Jorge Barros sent away a hard shot on goal in the 74th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The audience was convinced that Manuel Moutinho's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Rodrigo Faria was relentless in the 76th minute of the game. In the 79th minute, Nuno Silva hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Manuel Moutinho had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 81st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 84th minute, Diamantino Rocha hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After some fancy dribbling in the 88th minute, Jorge Barros managed to get in a good position for a shot. Touria's supporters rose to their feet, but Jorge Barros was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Rodrigo Faria breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Jorge Barros's late challenge caught a Pachecos's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Jorge Barros helped the player get up and apologised. Júlio Torres kicked well hit freekick during the 91st minute of the match. In the 92nd match minute Nuno Silva ran free in the middle of the field and shot a long shot which scored behind a totally surprised Rodrigo Lima. 1-3. Eusébio Sousa could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 96th minute of the match, but Rodrigo Lima made a huge save. When Nuno Lisboa fell near the penalty area in the 97th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Touria's protests and gave Nuno Lisboa a yellow card for diving instead. Nuno Lisboa kicked well hit freekick during the 97th minute of the match. After 100 minutes Touria's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Nuno Silva who took care of the corner kick. It was a well-played corner which Jaime Ferreira managed to volley towards the net. Unfortunately, he didn't get a great hit on the ball and it went out into the grandstand. Pachecos's Daniel Ramos got a good chance for a goal in the 100th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. When the final whistle was heard the away supporters stood up and showed their joy. Pachecos had managed to secure a win in what was a close match throughout.
