Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Mário Paredes kicked off to start the match.

Adolfo Borges kicked well hit freekick during the 10th minute of the match. Miguel Teixeira was extremely unlucky when he, in the 13th minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. Carlos Sá took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Mário Paredes, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Miguel Teixeira fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 21st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alexandre Marques having to interfere.

After 32 minutes of play, SC Olheiros's Jacinto Brito made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Carlos Sá was left in no man's land by his defense there! Miguel Ferreira's late challenge caught a SC Olheiros's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Miguel Ferreira helped the player get up and apologised. Mário Paredes blasted a shot towards the goal in the 39th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Carlos Sá having to make a save. After 44 played minutes, SC Olheiros's Duarte Anjos shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Carlos Sá 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 SC Olheiros reached it. Alexandre Marques took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from António Campos, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The first half was very even, with the score at 1-1 when the whistle went for half-time. The players welcomed the break and quickly retired to the dressing rooms.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for António Campos to strike the kick off in the second half. Carlos Sá was a little too slow when Mário Paredes got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 59th minute. The score was now 1-2. Miguel Teixeira fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 72nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alexandre Marques having to interfere.

In the 89th minute, Xavier Amaro left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The SC Olheiros fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-3.

In the 95th minute of the match Pedro Anjos sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Alexandre Marques skillfully saved the ball.
