Spectators: 7713 (Terracing: 5786, Seating: 1774, VIP seats: 153) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Primo Sans kicked off to start the match. Alexandre Soeiro struck a weak shot in the 5th minute. Johan Vollander didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Diamond Football Club.

Johan Vollander didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Wilian Quadros went, in the 23rd minute, to the upper right corner, 0-1 was the resulting score. In the 27th minute Albertinho Borges shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Johan Vollander saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Johan Vollander took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Nico Corrêa, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 33 minutes into the match, Academia B.F.'s goal looked a bit too open when Nico Corrêa came free, but Johan Vollander reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Alexandre Soeiro to make the kick off.

A very good chance. 82 minutes into the game, Albertinho Borges cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-2. Johan Vollander was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in.
