Spectators: 8500 (Terracing: 6376, Seating: 1955, VIP seats: 169) Fabián Haste made the kick off and thus started the match. Fabián Haste had several of the SORRISO E. C.'s defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 7 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 1-0 score and a disappointed Douglas Viana as he didn't even see the shot coming. An unexpectedly hard shot by Alberto Mendonça in the 10th minute of play forced ꉓꍏꋪꉣꂦꀸꋪꂦꂵꂦ's goalkeeper Alfonso Cauli to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Alfonso Cauli showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Alfredo da Rocha in the 11th minute of the match. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Alberto Mendonça in the 12th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Alfonso Cauli saved ꉓꍏꋪꉣꂦꀸꋪꂦꂵꂦ from getting behind. Anthony Tocci could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 15th minute of the match, but Douglas Viana made a huge save. Franco Borel kicked well hit freekick during the 17th minute of the match. When Yan Penha came up free with the goalie in the 17th minute, the SORRISO E. C. 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 Yan Penha couldn't finish the play. The audience thought a goal was coming when Edmondo Coviello got free with Douglas Viana in the 20th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. ꉓꍏꋪꉣꂦꀸꋪꂦꂵꂦ's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Ciro Sciamanna in the 21st minute. Alfonso Cauli took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Horácio Pereira, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 37th minute Alfredo da Rocha shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alfonso Cauli saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. ꉓꍏꋪꉣꂦꀸꋪꂦꂵꂦ's Alfonso Cauli played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Rodrigo Penha in the 46th minute of play. 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 1-0.

ꉓꍏꋪꉣꂦꀸꋪꂦꂵꂦ's Alfonso Cauli proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 54th minute of the match, managed to save ꉓꍏꋪꉣꂦꀸꋪꂦꂵꂦ from getting a goal against them. Cláudio Couto kicked well hit freekick during the 55th minute of the match. SORRISO E. C.'s Douglas Viana played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Fabián Haste in the 56th minute of play. In the 64th match minute, ꉓꍏꋪꉣꂦꀸꋪꂦꂵꂦ was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Augusto Guidone to maneuver through the defense. In the 65th minute Yan Penha shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alfonso Cauli saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Edmondo Coviello in the 66th minute of play forced SORRISO E. C.'s goalkeeper Douglas Viana to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Douglas Viana made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Edmondo Coviello in the 66th minute of play. In the 72nd minute the ball was on its way in behind SORRISO E. C.'s goalkeeper Douglas Viana, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Horácio Pereira fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 75th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alfonso Cauli having to interfere. If Alfredo da Rocha had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 76th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Cosimo Marulli's late challenge caught a SORRISO E. C.'s player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Cosimo Marulli helped the player get up and apologised. Rodrigo Penha kicked well hit freekick during the 95th minute of the match. Douglas Viana took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Fabián Haste, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. SORRISO E. C.'s players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
