Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Narciso Secco got the match started through his kick off. Jailson Vale took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Vânderson Cardozo, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The audience was convinced that Maurício Bastos's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Jailson Vale was relentless in the 17th minute of the game. In the 20th minute Oséas Xavier shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Antônio Carlos Gomes saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Vânderson Cardozo charged in rather forcefully in the 20th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Vânderson Cardozo the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Oscar Santos received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 21st minute. Antônio Carlos Gomes tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After 24 minutes of play, Bifurcacao's Vânderson Cardozo made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Jailson Vale was left in no man's land by his defense there! When Ramiz Ceberut came up free with the goalie in the 26th minute, the Bifurcacao 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 Ramiz Ceberut couldn't finish the play. Arson Hall FC's Jailson Vale played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Maurício Bastos in the 28th minute of play. Vânderson Cardozo kicked well hit freekick during the 31st minute of the match. Oscar Santos took the ball and in the 33 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Antônio Carlos Gomes. Antônio Carlos Gomes dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 2-1. In the 36th minute, Sami Sulin sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and Arson Hall FC's Jailson Vale didn't even have to move. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 2-1.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Oséas Xavier to make the kick off. Alexsandro Ramos kicked well hit freekick during the 53rd minute of the match. Bernardo Brito hit a great freekick 54 minutes into the match. Ramiz Ceberut sent away a hard shot on goal in the 57th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 67th minute, Vânderson Cardozo left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Bifurcacao fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-2.

Jailson Vale stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Vânderson Cardozo's shot from short distance in the 91st minute. Oséas Xavier might have been able to make a better finish in the 93rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Antônio Carlos Gomes. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Oséas Xavier ran back to his position shaking his head. Jailson Vale made a fantastic save in the 95th minute, when Maurício Bastos sent off a good shot on target. Bifurcacao were disappointed that they only managed a draw, even though they felt themselves to be the better team.
