Spectators: 6673 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1673, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Cristiano Freitas got the match started through his kick off. Fernando Brás took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Nuno Novais, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 5th minute, Nuno Novais ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal.

Fernando Brás made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-2. Jairo Azenha took the ball and in the 16 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Fernando Brás.

Fernando Brás was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. In the 34th minute Octavian Gherdan shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Fernando Brás saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Jorge Viana kicked well hit freekick during the 34th minute of the match. Vítor Henriques hit a great freekick 35 minutes into the match. After 36 minutes of play, SLEriceira's Nuno Novais made it 0-6 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Fernando Brás was left in no man's land by his defense there! 46 minutes into the match, Rapoza's goal looked a bit too open when Nuno Novais came free, but Fernando Brás reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-6 lead.

After 57 minutes, Sérgio Fontes mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Rapoza and the SLEriceira players grew even worse after the yellow card. After a rather tough play, Rapoza's Sérgio Fontes got a free kick in the 58th minute. 60 minutes into the match, Altino Vilar notched a goal, 0-7, to the right of Rapoza's Fernando Brás. Fernando Brás was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. With a little luck, Rapoza's Fernando Brás got control of the ball when Octavian Gherdan tried to sneak it across the goal line. Rapoza's Cristiano Freitas got a good chance for a goal in the 66th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 68th minute Cristiano Freitas shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Emanuel Cordeiro saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Cristiano Freitas in the 75th minute of play forced SLEriceira's goalkeeper Emanuel Cordeiro to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Fernando Brás showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Octavian Gherdan in the 77th minute of the match. Jorge Sequeira fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 78th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Fernando Brás having to interfere. Fernando Brás took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Altino Vilar, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Nuno Novais spun around in front of the goal 87 minutes in the game, and got away a shot that, to his disappointment, went to the left of Rapoza's goal. The crowd rose to their feet as Octavian Gherdan kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Fernando Brás. That made the score 0-9 in the 90 minute of play. Altino Vilar's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Fernando Brás read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 94th minute of play. When the final whistle sounded SLEriceira left the ground with the victory after a much better performance than Rapoza.
