The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Alexandrino Ribas was the one to do the kick off. The supporters of NoMoreMoneyForMZ booed when Matheu City FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 51 match minutes in a wonderful position. Tiburcio Joey didn't get a good kick on the ball. Alípio Franco showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Albino Semeno, who was totally free with the ball in the 67th minute. Alípio Franco took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Damaso Unax, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.

Jacinto Leoiar made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 1-2. 81 minutes into the match, Laureano Falcão sent off a long shot that looked like it was going straight into the goal, but because Jacinto Leoiar threw himself in his full length he managed to grip the ball by the left post, and there was no goal for Laureano Falcão this time. In the 86th match minute, Matheu City FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Benito Gartxot to maneuver through the defense. 96 minutes into the match, Matheu City FC's goal looked a bit too open when Aristides Domingos came free, but Jacinto Leoiar reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

NoMoreMoneyForMZ walked away with the win, even though the match was close until the end.
