Joaquim Fontes took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Sérgio Garcia, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 13 minutes into the game, SC Lagielas's Albertino Sousa nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. David Moura made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-1. An unexpectedly hard shot by Sérgio Garcia in the 16th minute of play forced SC Lagielas's goalkeeper Joaquim Fontes to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 21st minute, Manuel Miranda 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. 22 minutes into the match, SC Lagielas's goal looked a bit too open when Sérgio Garcia came free, but Joaquim Fontes reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Álvaro Viegas hit a great freekick 34 minutes into the match. After some fancy dribbling in the 37th minute, Alexandre Cardoso managed to get in a good position for a shot. Alfornelos FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Alexandre Cardoso was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Joaquim Fontes breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. SC Lagielas's Joaquim Fontes proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 39th minute of the match, managed to save SC Lagielas from getting a goal against them.

Joaquim Fontes came out of the goal and Sérgio Garcia tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Sérgio Garcia struck a weak shot in the 42nd minute. Joaquim Fontes didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Alfornelos FC.
