The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

The wind increased when Olavo Tavares made the kick off in the second half. After having played for 53 minutes, Federico Valverde managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

After some careless play in the Texugo Futebol Clube defense, Giovani Faria kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Vitinho Gonçalves.

Xinosfreba 13 played a much better game than Texugo Futebol Clube and deserved their victory. The Texugo Futebol Clube players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
