Spectators: 7506 (Terracing: 5630, Seating: 1726, VIP seats: 150) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Felippe Arantes made the kick off which started today's match. Simon Ahlén's late challenge caught a El Millo de Haedo's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Simon Ahlén helped the player get up and apologised. Simon Ahlén kicked well hit freekick during the 20th minute of the match. Faustin Lannoy hit a great freekick 22 minutes into the match. After a defensive mix-up in El Millo de Haedo's zone, Felippe Arantes stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Gustavo Eusko came out of the goal and Felippe Arantes tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Gustavo Eusko stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Felippe Arantes's shot from short distance in the 26th minute. José Vítor da Mata took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Sixto Vincent, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 36th minute Dedé de Toledo shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Gustavo Eusko saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 43 played minutes, El Millo de Haedo's Faustin Lannoy shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper José Vítor da Mata came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in El Millo de Haedo reached it. In the 47th match minute, El Millo de Haedo was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Breno Almeida to maneuver through the defense. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

The wind increased when Sixto Vincent made the kick off in the second half. José Vítor da Mata took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Jorge Olguín, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 53 minutes into the match, OS IMPOSSIVEIS's goal looked a bit too open when Jorge Olguín came free, but José Vítor da Mata reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 55 minutes into the match, El Millo de Haedo's goal looked a bit too open when Orxan Alişanov came free, but Gustavo Eusko reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 61 minutes into the game, Sixto Vincent cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-1. José Vítor da Mata was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. A collision led to OS IMPOSSIVEIS getting a freekick after 67 minutes play. Orxan Alişanov hit a great ball. Gustavo Eusko stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Dedé de Toledo's shot from short distance in the 69th minute. Dedé de Toledo did some fancy footwork in front of goal and succeeded to deceive the defenders so he could slam the ball in 1-2 to the left of a surprised Gustavo Eusko 69 minutes into the match. Gustavo Eusko made a fantastic save in the 82nd minute, when Vágner Ferraz sent off a good shot on target. Gustavo Eusko made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Dedé de Toledo in the 86th minute of play. The supporters of OS IMPOSSIVEIS booed when El Millo de Haedo was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 89 match minutes in a wonderful position. Lázaro Oto didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Dedé de Toledo had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 90th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. When the match was over OS IMPOSSIVEIS could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than El Millo de Haedo throughout the match.
