Spectators: 7482 (Terracing: 5613, Seating: 1720, VIP seats: 149) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Paulão Veiga made the kick off which started today's match. José Vítor Mendonça had several of the ΑΙΕΝ ΥΨΙΚΡΑΤΕΙΝ's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 5 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 Polybos Christofis as he didn't even see the shot coming. Paulão Veiga scored 2-0 in the 8th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Polybos Christofis, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Dinei Hermes showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Aias Catranides in the 23rd minute of the match. The supporters of ΑΙΕΝ ΥΨΙΚΡΑΤΕΙΝ booed when Carrossel Caipira was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 24 match minutes in a wonderful position. Dudu Queiroz didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Salmakis Pezos came up free with the goalie in the 26th minute, the ΑΙΕΝ ΥΨΙΚΡΑΤΕΙΝ 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 Salmakis Pezos couldn't finish the play. In the 28th minute Leukothoe Lipsanos shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Dinei Hermes saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The audience thought a goal was coming when José Vítor Mendonça got free with Polybos Christofis in the 37th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Dinei Hermes showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Akheron Dimakakos in the 42nd minute of the match. ΑΙΕΝ ΥΨΙΚΡΑΤΕΙΝ's defense didn't have a chance, in the 43rd minute, when Dudu Queiroz scored to the left of an out of position Polybos Christofis, making the score, 3-0. 47 minutes into the match, Salmakis Pezos notched a goal, 3-1, to the right of Carrossel Caipira's Dinei Hermes. Dinei Hermes was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. The home fans were very happy to see their team leading 3-1 at half-time.

Polybos Christofis didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Jonathan Hermes went, in the 58th minute, to the upper right corner, 4-1 was the resulting score. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Leukothoe Lipsanos in the 70th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Dinei Hermes saved Carrossel Caipira from getting behind. An unexpectedly hard shot by Aias Catranides in the 71st minute of play forced Carrossel Caipira's goalkeeper Dinei Hermes to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After 71 minutes of play, ΑΙΕΝ ΥΨΙΚΡΑΤΕΙΝ's Aias Catranides made it 4-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Dinei Hermes was left in no man's land by his defense there! In the 77th minute, Isaltino Pereira left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Carrossel Caipira fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 5-2. In the 82nd minute, Akheron Dimakakos had to leave the field with a concussion. After 83 minutes, Jairo Veiga mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Carrossel Caipira and the ΑΙΕΝ ΥΨΙΚΡΑΤΕΙΝ players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 84 played minutes Carrossel Caipira got a freekick which was hit by Jairo Veiga. Akis Kiriakopoulos's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Dinei Hermes read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 85th minute of play. The crowd rose to their feet as Kaineus Pintzopoulos kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Dinei Hermes. That made the score 5-3 in the 93 minute of play. After a rather tough play, Carrossel Caipira's José Vítor Mendonça got a free kick in the 98th minute. For all the effort they put into the match, the ΑΙΕΝ ΥΨΙΚΡΑΤΕΙΝ players left disappointed. They had fought hard, but couldn't break down the home team's defense. The match ended in a win for Carrossel Caipira.
