The audience was convinced that Ricardo Rosa's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Şenol Yaren was relentless in the 8th minute of the game. If Tião Lago had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 13th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 15 minutes into the match, GRASSHOPPERS F.C's Erik Pitta sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Osmar Berger narrowly saved just below the crossbar.

Erik Pitta was extremely unlucky when he, in the 24th minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. After some fancy dribbling in the 26th minute, Erik Pitta managed to get in a good position for a shot.

In the 32nd minute, Maurinho Lopez hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. GRASSHOPPERS F.C's Elder Andrade shoveled away a really nice long shot in the 33rd minute of play. The shot was stopped by Osmar Berger but with some difficulty. When Isaltino Furlan fell near the penalty area in the 35th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick.

The wind increased when Erik Pitta made the kick off in the second half. When Pedrão Motta came up free with the goalie in the 51st minute, the GRASSHOPPERS F.C fans jumped to their feet.
