After some careless play in the Psiu! defense, Slawomir Turak kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Laércio Sá. The Psiu! fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Laércio Sá should have stopped the shot. 33 minutes into the match, Slawomir Turak notched a goal, 6-0, to the right of Psiu!'s Laércio Sá.

Laércio Sá didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Slawomir Turak went, in the 54th minute, to the upper right corner, 8-0 was the resulting score.

Yao Ang Feng scored 9-0 in the 74th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Laércio Sá, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

Yao Ang Feng ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 81st minute, Yao Ang Feng ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal.

Glauco Arantes ran over to the corner to take the kick. It was a well-played corner which Miguel Urtungo managed to volley towards the net. Unfortunately, he didn't get a great hit on the ball and it went out into the grandstand. In the 90th minute Yao Ang Feng shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Laércio Sá saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. A sloppy throw-in by Serginho de Senna in the 95th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by 25 de Abril Futbol Club's Sixto Manilan. For all the effort they put into the match, the Psiu! players left disappointed. They had fought hard, but couldn't break down the home team's defense. The match ended in a win for 25 de Abril Futbol Club.
