The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Zé Ortiz was the one to do the kick off. In the 51st minute, Gustavo Gaúcho hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The supporters of Betania booed when Toque Me Voy was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 56 match minutes in a wonderful position. João Pedro Paiva didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Durvalino Alves fell near the penalty area in the 57th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Toque Me Voy's protests and gave Durvalino Alves a yellow card for diving instead. After 57 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Toque Me Voy! The referee gave Betania a penalty, 60 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by João Vítor Vides, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of Toque Me Voy's Tiago Torres. 3-1. 64 minutes into the game, Betania's Roberto Saraiva nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Tiago Torres made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 4-1. João Vítor Vides was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 72nd played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. After having played for 79 minutes, Bernardo Monteiro managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Betania's supporters crossed their fingers, but Bernardo Monteiro was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal.

João Vítor Vides took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 87th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Tiago Torres. Toque Me Voy's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. If Albertinho de Sousa had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 91st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 96th minute the ball was on its way in behind Betania's goalkeeper Baltazar Nóbrega, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar.
