Spectators: 7961 (Terracing: 5972, Seating: 1831, VIP seats: 158) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Rômulo de Castro took the kick off in the first half of the match. After a defensive mix-up in CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ's zone, Elano Rezende stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Franco Daniel came out of the goal and Elano Rezende tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Rômulo de Castro sent away a hard shot on goal in the 7th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. José Paulo Romero stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Rômulo de Castro's shot from short distance in the 8th minute. In the 13th minute, João Pedro Nogueira hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Franco Daniel made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Manuel Negri in the 18th minute of play. The audience thought a goal was coming when Elano Rezende got free with Franco Daniel in the 18th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. If Zhang Xiang had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 19th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 21st minute, Elano Rezende hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 25 minutes had been played when some careless play by ≈SΞVĺЯΔ FC™'s defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Olavo Vidal was slow to take the kick. During this time CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ's players had a chance to rest. CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ's Olavo Vidal was first on the ball when the corner was shot and he dangerously headed the ball towards goal, but José Paulo Romero in the goal jumped up to prevent it from getting in. When the match had gone on for 32 minutes, Luiz Soeiro took a quick shot and it went in 1-1 without a chance for Franco Daniel to make any attempt to save it. After a rather tough play, CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ's Roger Mesquita got a free kick in the 37th minute. An unexpectedly hard shot by Manuel Negri in the 38th minute of play forced CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ's goalkeeper Franco Daniel to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 39 minutes into the game, CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ's Zhang Xiang nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. José Paulo Romero made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 1-2. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 1-2.

≈SΞVĺЯΔ FC™'s Marcelinho Costa was substituted for Luiz Soeiro. ≈SΞVĺЯΔ FC™'s Baltazar Schmidt was substituted for Antônio Carlos da Fonseca. The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Marcelinho Costa was the one to do the kick off. Zhang Xiang took the ball and in the 54 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised José Paulo Romero. José Paulo Romero dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-3. When Marcelinho Costa came up free with the goalie in the 61st minute, the ≈SΞVĺЯΔ FC™ fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Marcelinho Costa couldn't finish the play. After 63 minutes, João Pedro Nogueira mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the ≈SΞVĺЯΔ FC™ and the CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ players grew even worse after the yellow card. João Pedro Nogueira kicked well hit freekick during the 64th minute of the match. Franco Daniel took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Marcelinho Costa, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Franco Daniel showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Marcelinho Costa in the 70th minute of the match. 84 minutes into the match, CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ's goal looked a bit too open when Agnaldo Araújo came free, but Franco Daniel reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 87th minute Elano Rezende shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Franco Daniel saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. João Pedro Nogueira received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 90th minute. Franco Daniel tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After 94 minutes of play, CRICIUMA TIGRAO FSCMZ's Rômulo de Castro made it 2-5 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. José Paulo Romero was left in no man's land by his defense there!
