Spectators: 7496 (Terracing: 5623, Seating: 1724, VIP seats: 149) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Luís Meirelles kicked off to start the match. In the 6th match minute, Juventudes Libertárias was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Jaime Maia to maneuver through the defense. In the 14th minute, Diamantino Reis left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Juventudes Libertárias fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-0. Dedê Trigo showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Abelardo Jaunzuria, who was totally free with the ball in the 16th minute. After 22 minutes, Luizão Sarmento mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Juventudes Libertárias and the FMArgentina players grew even worse after the yellow card. Luizão Sarmento kicked well hit freekick during the 22nd minute of the match. Abelardo Jaunzuria struck a weak shot in the 23rd minute. Dedê Trigo didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for FMArgentina. An unexpectedly hard shot by Arnulfo Osoitz in the 27th minute of play forced Juventudes Libertárias's goalkeeper Dedê Trigo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Juventudes Libertárias's Dedê Trigo played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Abelardo Jaunzuria in the 28th minute of play. 30 minutes into the match, Juventudes Libertárias's goal looked a bit too open when Arnulfo Osoitz came free, but Dedê Trigo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Arnulfo Osoitz scored 1-1 in the 30th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Dedê Trigo, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Luís Meirelles fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 34th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Honorato Ur having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 35th minute, Cido Oliveira managed to get in a good position for a shot. Juventudes Libertárias's supporters rose to their feet, but Cido Oliveira was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Honorato Ur breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Juventudes Libertárias's Luís Meirelles got a good chance for a goal in the 46th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Af the end of the first half the score was 2-1. The first half had gone as expected for the home team.

After 69 minutes, Jaime Maia mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Juventudes Libertárias and the FMArgentina players grew even worse after the yellow card. The supporters of FMArgentina booed when Juventudes Libertárias was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 69 match minutes in a wonderful position. Jaime Maia didn't get a good kick on the ball. Dedê Trigo took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Arnulfo Osoitz, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 72nd minute, Abelardo Jaunzuria hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After 74 minutes of play, Juventudes Libertárias's Luís Meirelles made it 3-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Honorato Ur was left in no man's land by his defense there! 80 minutes had been played when some careless play by FMArgentina's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Edmundo Silveira was slow to take the kick. During this time Juventudes Libertárias's players had a chance to rest. Diamantino Reis received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 87th minute. Honorato Ur tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Cido Oliveira had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 95th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Juventudes Libertárias fully deserved thier win.
