Spectators: 7465 (Terracing: 5600, Seating: 1716, VIP seats: 149) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Pablo Sayvion got the match started through his kick off. Luiz Paulo do Valle hit a great freekick 6 minutes into the match. A collision led to COURO COME FC getting a freekick after 9 minutes play. Leonel Koehler hit a great ball. Dalmacio Manuelo made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Iuri Cardozo in the 11th minute of play. Joacim Myhr recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 12th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After 14 minutes, Blas Gaizkine mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Ψ virgen Ψ and the COURO COME FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 14 played minutes Ψ virgen Ψ got a freekick which was hit by Blas Gaizkine. After some fancy dribbling in the 24th minute, Décio Veiga managed to get in a good position for a shot. COURO COME FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Décio Veiga was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Dalmacio Manuelo breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Zé Leite might have been able to make a better finish in the 28th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Dalmacio Manuelo. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Zé Leite ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 32nd minute Iuri Cardozo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Dalmacio Manuelo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 34th minute Décio Veiga shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Dalmacio Manuelo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 40 minutes into the match, Ψ virgen Ψ's goal looked a bit too open when Iuri Cardozo came free, but Dalmacio Manuelo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Dalmacio Manuelo came out of the goal in the 45th minute to try and stop a shot by COURO COME FC's Zé Leite. But to his dismay, Zé Leite quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-2. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-2 lead.

Isaac Olentzaro showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Fausto Gonzales in the 57th minute of the match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Geovani Coutinho in the 61st minute of play forced Ψ virgen Ψ's goalkeeper Dalmacio Manuelo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Ψ virgen Ψ's Dalmacio Manuelo played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Joacim Myhr in the 62nd minute of play. In the 63rd play minute Zé Leite came free and shot an unsuspected shot which went into goal from the right pole behind a surprised Dalmacio Manuelo. 0-4. 66 minutes into the game, Fausto Gonzales was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Ψ virgen Ψ's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave COURO COME FC the free kick. COURO COME FC's Iuri Cardozo got a good chance for a goal in the 67th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. 75 minutes into the game, Geovani Coutinho recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Dalmacio Manuelo. Geovani Coutinho showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 0-5. When Fausto Gonzales was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 77 minutes had been played. Zé Leite's late challenge caught a Ψ virgen Ψ's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Zé Leite helped the player get up and apologised. The supporters of Ψ virgen Ψ booed when COURO COME FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 80 match minutes in a wonderful position. Zé Leite didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 81st match minute, COURO COME FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Zé Leite to maneuver through the defense. Isaac Olentzaro made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Claudio Garikoitz in the 83rd minute of play. Dalmacio Manuelo was a little too slow when Aírton Faria got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 84th minute. The score was now 0-6. In the 87th match minute, Ψ virgen Ψ was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Placido Ignado to maneuver through the defense. The crowd rose to their feet as Iuri Cardozo kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Dalmacio Manuelo. That made the score 0-7 in the 89 minute of play. Iuri Cardozo received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 92nd minute. Dalmacio Manuelo tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Aírton Faria had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 96th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The Ψ virgen Ψ fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. COURO COME FC were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
