Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Arsenal das graças's Mathias Vale started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Dé Loyola received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 5th minute. Eliézer Paraense tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 8th minute, Mathias Vale hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Dé Loyola received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 13th minute. Eliézer Paraense tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Nelson Moraes in the 15th minute of play forced Arsenal das graças's goalkeeper Eliézer Paraense to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Mathias Vale in the 20th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Sandrinho Quadros saved Hotspur D. Discove from getting behind. Róbson Fontes kicked well hit freekick during the 20th minute of the match. Mathias Vale fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 22nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Sandrinho Quadros having to interfere. In the 26th minute, Dé Loyola 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. After a defensive mix-up in Arsenal das graças's zone, Dé Loyola stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Eliézer Paraense came out of the goal and Dé Loyola tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Dé Loyola sent away a hard shot on goal in the 30th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Dé Loyola struck a weak shot in the 32nd minute. Eliézer Paraense didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Hotspur D. Discove. Jaime Melo's late challenge caught a Hotspur D. Discove's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Jaime Melo helped the player get up and apologised. After 34 played minutes, Hotspur D. Discove's Cléber Fontes shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Eliézer Paraense 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 Hotspur D. Discove reached it. Mathias Vale received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 35th minute. Sandrinho Quadros tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Nelson Moraes struck a weak shot in the 40th minute. Eliézer Paraense didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Hotspur D. Discove. 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.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Nelson Moraes to strike the kick off in the second half. After some fancy dribbling in the 55th minute, Dé Loyola managed to get in a good position for a shot. Hotspur D. Discove's supporters rose to their feet, but Dé Loyola was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Eliézer Paraense breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. The supporters of Hotspur D. Discove booed when Arsenal das graças was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 57 match minutes in a wonderful position. Acácio Fernandes didn't get a good kick on the ball. Dé Loyola sent away a hard shot on goal in the 58th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Mathias Vale scored 1-0 in the 63rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Sandrinho Quadros, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. If Mathias Vale had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 67th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. When Gernando Correia fell near the penalty area in the 68th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Hotspur D. Discove's protests and gave Gernando Correia a yellow card for diving instead. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Renatinho Vale in the 71st managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Sandrinho Quadros saved Hotspur D. Discove from getting behind. When the match clock showed 73 minutes, the score became 2-0 when Renatinho Vale sped through Hotspur D. Discove's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Sandrinho Quadros. Nelson Moraes received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 83rd minute. Eliézer Paraense tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After 90 minutes of play, Arsenal das graças's Mathias Vale made it 3-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Sandrinho Quadros was left in no man's land by his defense there! Arsenal das graças's Eliézer Paraense proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 95th minute of the match, managed to save Arsenal das graças from getting a goal against them. Nelson Moraes was extremely unlucky when he, in the 96th minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out.
