Rei Fernando
Spectators: 145 (Terracing: 110, Seating: 33, VIP seats: 2) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Humberto Paes took the kick off in the first half of the match. The audience was convinced that Victor de Salles's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Telmo Madureira was relentless in the 3rd minute of the game. Flying Dutch's Jonathan Fonseca got a good chance for a goal in the 4th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 15th minute Jonathan Fonseca shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Telmo Madureira saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Zé Pedro Montenegro scored 0-1 in the 19th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Telmo Madureira, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Arthur Amorim took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Humberto Paes, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 24 minutes into the match, E.C 2 Janeiro RS's goal looked a bit too open when Jonathan Fonseca came free, but Telmo Madureira reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Telmo Madureira made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Victor de Salles in the 25th minute of play. After 26 minutes E.C 2 Janeiro RS's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Thiago de Mendonça who took care of the corner kick. It was a well-played corner which Tiago Correia managed to volley towards the net. Unfortunately, he didn't get a great hit on the ball and it went out into the grandstand. E.C 2 Janeiro RS's Telmo Madureira played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Zé Pedro Montenegro in the 28th minute of play. Victor de Salles struck a weak shot in the 31st minute. Telmo Madureira didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Flying Dutch. 32 minutes into the match, Victor de Salles notched a goal, 0-2, to the right of E.C 2 Janeiro RS's Telmo Madureira. Telmo Madureira was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Thanks to some nice moves Raphael de Salles could shoot a difficult shot in the 37th minute, which Arthur Amorim however easily saved by the left post. After a rather tough play, E.C 2 Janeiro RS's Raphael de Salles got a free kick in the 43rd minute. After 45 minutes of play, Flying Dutch's Victor de Salles made it 0-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Telmo Madureira was left in no man's land by his defense there! Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-3 lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Jonathan Fonseca to make the kick off. Telmo Madureira was out of position in the 54 minute of play, and Victor de Salles capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Victor de Salles really showed his touch with that goal: 0-4. In the 59th minute, Fellipe Rezende hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Telmo Madureira showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Victor de Salles in the 61st minute of the match. After some careless play in the E.C 2 Janeiro RS defense, Jonathan Fonseca kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Telmo Madureira. The E.C 2 Janeiro RS fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Telmo Madureira should have stopped the shot. Tiago Correia recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 72nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. E.C 2 Janeiro RS's Telmo Madureira proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 75th minute of the match, managed to save E.C 2 Janeiro RS from getting a goal against them. Victor de Salles fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 76th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Telmo Madureira having to interfere. When the match clock showed 77 minutes, the score became 0-6 when Jonathan Fonseca sped through E.C 2 Janeiro RS's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Telmo Madureira. The supporters of E.C 2 Janeiro RS booed when Flying Dutch was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 82 match minutes in a wonderful position. Osmar Mattos didn't get a good kick on the ball. Telmo Madureira showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Tiago Correia in the 85th minute of the match. Jonathan Fonseca scored 0-7 in the 87th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Telmo Madureira, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 93rd minute, Zé Pedro Montenegro hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The E.C 2 Janeiro RS fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. Flying Dutch were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
