Spectators: 7213 (Terracing: 5411, Seating: 1659, VIP seats: 143) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Haroldo Normando made the kick off which started today's match. 3 minutes into the game, Angelino Lopes was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Mangrullo AFC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Cóndores the free kick. After 3 played minutes Mangrullo AFC got a freekick which was hit by Angelino Lopes. Modesto Gonsalvo was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 4th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. German Reynardo kicked well hit freekick during the 6th minute of the match. Artemio Micael fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 9th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Silvio Johans having to interfere. In the 11th minute, Haroldo Normando left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net.

But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Haroldo Normando couldn't finish the play. German Reynardo's late challenge caught a Cóndores's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card.
