Ramon Tancredo struck a weak shot in the 2nd minute. Nils Alén didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Mercado Paulista F.C. In the 4th minute Anton Skog shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Albino Asteri saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.
