Spectators: 587 (Terracing: 441, Seating: 135, VIP seats: 11) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Daniel Orzaize made the kick off which started today's match. Daniel Orzaize scored 0-1 in the 3rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Rodriguinho Sousa, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 22 minutes into the match, Deilmison van Basten had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Zhuo Yu Yuan. Rage F.C.'s manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Deilmison van Basten was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-2. The audience was convinced that Deilmison van Basten's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Zhuo Yu Yuan was relentless in the 27th minute of the game. Valer Pătru hit a great freekick 30 minutes into the match. In the 32nd minute, Juan Cristóbal Jadue got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Vilhelm Skoog in the 36thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Zhuo Yu Yuan, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. After 38 minutes Rage F.C.'s defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Unax Mudarra who took care of the corner kick. The corner led ATHLETICO PRaiano's Unax Mudarra to fire away a dangerous shot which Zhuo Yu Yuan despite some difficulties managed to get hold on the ball. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 1-2 lead.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Deilmison van Basten to strike the kick off in the second half. When the match clock showed 51 minutes, the score became 2-2 when Deilmison van Basten sped through Rage F.C.'s defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Zhuo Yu Yuan. Rage F.C.'s Billy Billy was substituted for Juan Cristóbal Jadue. An unexpectedly hard shot by Denílson Magalhães in the 57th minute of play forced Rage F.C.'s goalkeeper Zhuo Yu Yuan to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Zhuo Yu Yuan took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Deilmison van Basten, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Deilmison van Basten sent away a hard shot on goal in the 70th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. ATHLETICO PRaiano's Vilhelm Skoog quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Sisebuto Pezoa, made in the 75th minute of the game. Rage F.C.'s Zhuo Yu Yuan played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Deilmison van Basten in the 77th minute of play. In the 78th minute Billy Billy shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Rodriguinho Sousa saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Deilmison van Basten took the ball and in the 84 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Zhuo Yu Yuan. Zhuo Yu Yuan dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 3-2. In the 87th minute, Deilmison van Basten left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The ATHLETICO PRaiano fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 4-2.

ATHLETICO PRaiano's fans were exulted and cheered after their team won in a match that could easily have gone the other way.
