Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Júnior Marques started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. After having played for 6 minutes, Sidney Ceresso managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Atitude's supporters crossed their fingers, but Sidney Ceresso was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Júnior Marques in the 10th minute of play forced Atitude's goalkeeper Olavo Ramalho to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Walmyr Quirino had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 29th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a defensive mix-up in Atitude's zone, Walmyr Quirino stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Olavo Ramalho came out of the goal and Walmyr Quirino tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The audience was convinced that Júnior Marques's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Olavo Ramalho was relentless in the 35th minute of the game. Walmyr Quirino struck a weak shot in the 37th minute. Olavo Ramalho didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Guine EC. 39 minutes into the game, Júnior Marques cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-1. Olavo Ramalho was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in.
