Spectators: 7740 (Terracing: 5806, Seating: 1780, VIP seats: 154) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Hustaz Cedron made the kick off which started today's match. Acácio Cardozo took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 3rd minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Iker Simon. Mesere's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. In the 3rd minute, Inacio Tordesillas hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Inacio Tordesillas received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 6th minute. Dadá Favoretto tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After 7 played minutes Granadero10 got a freekick which was hit by Acácio Cardozo. After a defensive mix-up in Granadero10's zone, Jaunzuria Canta stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Dadá Favoretto came out of the goal and Jaunzuria Canta tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Mesere's Jaunzuria Canta got a good chance for a goal in the 10th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. 14 minutes into the match, Mesere's goal looked a bit too open when Ernani Palmeira came free, but Iker Simon reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After a rather tough play, Granadero10's Paulo Renato Cearense got a free kick in the 22nd minute. After having played for 23 minutes, Machado Enao managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Mesere's supporters crossed their fingers, but Machado Enao was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 25th minute, Ernani Palmeira left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Granadero10 fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-3. A collision led to Granadero10 getting a freekick after 27 minutes play. Kauan Siqueira hit a great ball. After 28 minutes of play, Mesere's Inacio Tordesillas made it 1-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Dadá Favoretto was left in no man's land by his defense there! Iker Simon showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Nelsinho Paulista, who was totally free with the ball in the 31st minute. The supporters of Granadero10 booed when Mesere was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 36 match minutes in a wonderful position. Primitivo Obispo didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Hustaz Cedron had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 43rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Mesere's Iker Simon played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Nelsinho Paulista in the 46th minute of play. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 1-3 lead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Nelsinho Paulista stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. A collision led to Mesere getting a freekick after 51 minutes play. Fernandez Valdivielso hit a great ball. After 56 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Granadero10! 65 minutes into the match, Inacio Tordesillas had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Dadá Favoretto. Granadero10's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Inacio Tordesillas was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-3. 69 minutes into the match, Granadero10's goal looked a bit too open when Inacio Tordesillas came free, but Dadá Favoretto reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 77th minute, Hustaz Cedron managed to get in a good position for a shot. Mesere's supporters rose to their feet, but Hustaz Cedron was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Dadá Favoretto breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Mesere's Inacio Tordesillas got a good chance for a goal in the 84th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Inacio Tordesillas took the ball and in the 92 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Dadá Favoretto. Dadá Favoretto dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 4-3. Hustaz Cedron received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 97th minute. Dadá Favoretto tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.
