Alexandre Pereira went to the cornerflag to take it. It was a well-played corner which Óscar Henriques managed to volley towards the net. Unfortunately, he didn't get a great hit on the ball and it went out into the grandstand. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

David Coelho received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 63rd minute. Rui Vieira tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 66th minute, David Coelho managed to get in a good position for a shot. GIL FC's supporters rose to their feet, but David Coelho was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Rui Vieira breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. André Alves kicked well hit freekick during the 70th minute of the match. In the 71st minute Álvaro Borges shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Marco Assis saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. A collision led to Arrifana getting a freekick after 73 minutes play. Alexandre Freitas hit a great ball. When Álvaro Borges, who was free, got the in front of the goal in the 85 minute he wasn't focused and tipped the ball just over the goal. The Marco Assis was delighted since the ball would have got in if it had gone under the crossbar. David Coelho could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 91st minute of the match, but Rui Vieira made a huge save.
