Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Pablo-Enrique Guzman made the kick off which started today's match. Américo Paraíba recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 6th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Pium SS's Décio Favoretto proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 7th minute of the match, managed to save Pium SS from getting a goal against them. In the 14th minute, Pablo-Enrique Guzman 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. In the 16th minute, Ramón Quaresma made a precise shot to the right of Décio Favoretto. Pium SS's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 1-0. After 20 played minutes Jupi got a freekick which was hit by Ivo Vides. Vágner do Valle recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 21st minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After a rather tough play, Jupi's Alexsandro Reis got a free kick in the 22nd minute. Vágner do Valle hit a great freekick 35 minutes into the match. John van As took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Vágner do Valle, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When Pablo-Enrique Guzman came up free with the goalie in the 45th minute, the Jupi fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Pablo-Enrique Guzman couldn't finish the play. If Pablo-Enrique Guzman had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 47th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Vágner do Valle made a kick off. In the 52nd minute Pablo-Enrique Guzman shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Décio Favoretto saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Pablo-Enrique Guzman received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 53rd minute. Décio Favoretto tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The audience thought a goal was coming when Vitório Alagoano got free with John van As in the 60th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. If Vitório Alagoano had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 71st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Edvaldo Arósio kicked well hit freekick during the 83rd minute of the match. In the 87thth minute of the game Pablo-Enrique Guzman who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Pium SS's Décio Favoretto was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. When Valdemar Mineiro fell near the penalty area in the 93rd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Jupi's protests and gave Valdemar Mineiro a yellow card for diving instead. After 93 played minutes Jupi got a freekick which was hit by Valdemar Mineiro. Pium SS's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
