After 4 played minutes Fenerbahçe got a freekick which was hit by Uğurcan Oğuzalp. Válter Dantas recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 5th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Oğuzalp Ak hit a great freekick 6 minutes into the match. After some fancy dribbling in the 7th minute, Válter Dantas managed to get in a good position for a shot. Espigão Steamrollers's supporters rose to their feet, but Válter Dantas was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Yıldırım Yaman breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Yıldırım Yaman showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Zé Carlos Paranaense, who was totally free with the ball in the 14th minute. Fenerbahçe's Yıldırım Yaman played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Cristian Quirino in the 15th minute of play. In the 16th minute, Demarcus Andersen hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 17 minutes into the game, Espigão Steamrollers's Cristian Quirino nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot.

After 25 minutes of play, Espigão Steamrollers's Válter Dantas made it 0-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Yıldırım Yaman was left in no man's land by his defense there! Renan Rosa scored 0-3 in the 31st match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Yıldırım Yaman, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 34 minutes into the game, Espigão Steamrollers's Cristian Quirino nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot.

After 36 played minutes Espigão Steamrollers got a freekick which was hit by Válter Dantas. Oğuzalp Ak fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 41st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Emerson Leal having to interfere. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 1-4 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Tuncer İribaş was the one to do the kick off. After a rather tough play, Fenerbahçe's Demarcus Andersen got a free kick in the 52nd minute. In the 60th minute, Aras Daman hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Fenerbahçe's Tuncer İribaş got a good chance for a goal in the 64th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Cristian Quirino had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 66th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, Fenerbahçe's Binali Hicabi got a free kick in the 70th minute. Fenerbahçe's Yıldırım Yaman proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 82nd minute of the match, managed to save Fenerbahçe from getting a goal against them. 88 minutes into the match, Evren Tanfer had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Emerson Leal. Espigão Steamrollers's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Evren Tanfer was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-4.
