Arapari
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Eurico Sampaio kicked off to start the match. Sílvio Gaúcho sent away a hard shot on goal in the 5th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The attack was good, but when Artur Prado in the 13th minute was about to shoot he didn't kick quite good enough and the ball went high over goal. The supporters of Pacia booed when Arapari was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 19 match minutes in a wonderful position. Nuno Tasso didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 21st minute, Juarês Mello hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Artur Prado struck a weak shot in the 29th minute. Dito Cardoso didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Arapari. Dito Cardoso took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Eurico Sampaio, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After some fancy dribbling in the 35th minute, Sílvio Gaúcho managed to get in a good position for a shot. Pacia's supporters rose to their feet, but Sílvio Gaúcho was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Dráuzio Toledo breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Alex Pereira took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 37th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Dito Cardoso. Pacia's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. Dito Cardoso was out of position in the 43 minute of play, and Juarês Mello capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Juarês Mello really showed his touch with that goal: 1-0. In the 47th minute, Eurico Sampaio 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.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Gernando Cordeiro was the one to do the kick off. After 52 minutes of play, Arapari's Eurico Sampaio made it 2-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Dito Cardoso was left in no man's land by his defense there! In the 57th minute Gernando Cordeiro shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Dráuzio Toledo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Juarês Mello hit a great freekick 58 minutes into the match. Gernando Cordeiro struck a weak shot in the 60th minute. Dráuzio Toledo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Pacia. An unexpectedly hard shot by Gernando Cordeiro in the 64th minute of play forced Arapari's goalkeeper Dráuzio Toledo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Sílvio Gaúcho sent away a hard shot on goal in the 71st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Artur Prado sent away a hard shot on goal in the 73rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The supporters of Arapari booed when Pacia was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 79 match minutes in a wonderful position. Christian Toledo didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 80th minute, Alex Pereira sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and Pacia's Dito Cardoso didn't even have to move. In the 82ndth minute of the game Eurico Sampaio who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Pacia's Dito Cardoso was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Gernando Cordeiro recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 84th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After a defensive mix-up in Pacia's zone, Eurico Sampaio stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Dito Cardoso came out of the goal and Eurico Sampaio tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Arapari were awarded a corner in the 94th minute after Pacia's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Alex Pereira took the corner. The corner ended in Alex Pereira almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but Pacia's Dito Cardoso did a great save. The referee blew his whistle, and the match came to a close. The players exchanged shirts and headed down the tunnel. The Arapari fans cheered their team off the field, for while Pacia had put up a good fight, they were unable to come out of the game with any points to show for their effort.
