Spectators: 7192 (Terracing: 5395, Seating: 1654, VIP seats: 143) Leria's Guga de Queirós started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. If Guga de Queirós had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 6th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 15 played minutes, ŧυямα đα мøиι¢α נøvєм's Rafinha Mendes shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Vânderson Pires came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in ŧυямα đα мøиι¢α נøvєм reached it. Hélder Pinheiro sent away a hard shot on goal in the 16th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After some fancy dribbling in the 20th minute, Dalmo Branco managed to get in a good position for a shot. ŧυямα đα мøиι¢α נøvєм's supporters rose to their feet, but Dalmo Branco was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Vânderson Pires breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 27th minute Guga de Queirós shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Carlos Fernando Vergílio saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. ŧυямα đα мøиι¢α נøvєм's Carlos Fernando Vergílio played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Jaime Fonseca in the 38th minute of play. Hélder Pinheiro sent away a hard shot on goal in the 47th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The fans had the chance to grab some refreshments as the whistle went for half-time. The score stood at 0-0 after a close first half.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Hélder Pinheiro stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. In the 51st minute, Hélder Pinheiro ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Vânderson Pires was frozen by the shot and now it was 1-0. Hélder Pinheiro fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 57th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Vânderson Pires having to interfere. 63 minutes into the match, Guga de Queirós notched a goal, 1-2, to the right of ŧυямα đα мøиι¢α נøvєм's Carlos Fernando Vergílio. Carlos Fernando Vergílio was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Vânderson Pires showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Hélder Pinheiro, who was totally free with the ball in the 67th minute. Hélder Pinheiro struck a weak shot in the 69th minute. Vânderson Pires didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for ŧυямα đα мøиι¢α נøvєм. Wellington da Cunha's late challenge caught a ŧυямα đα мøиι¢α נøvєм's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Wellington da Cunha helped the player get up and apologised. If Dalmo Branco had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 83rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 86 played minutes Leria got a freekick which was hit by Reginaldo Cearense. Jaime Fonseca fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 95th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Carlos Fernando Vergílio having to interfere. The crowd rose to their feet and cheered when the referee blew the final whistle. ŧυямα đα мøиι¢α נøvєм had won after a very even match.
