Spectators: 166 (Terracing: 125, Seating: 38, VIP seats: 3) Gilberto Min made the kick off and thus started the match. The supporters of AM United booed when CONSTILIANO was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 3 match minutes in a wonderful position. Gilberto Min didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Germano Rocha fell near the penalty area in the 9th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored AM United's protests and gave Germano Rocha a yellow card for diving instead. Germano Rocha hit a great freekick 9 minutes into the match. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Laureano Gueifão during the 10th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After 10 played minutes AM United got a freekick which was hit by Laureano Gueifão. Gilberto Min scored 0-1 in the 12th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Alexandre Mendonça, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 16 minutes into the match, Gilberto Min had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Alexandre Mendonça. AM United's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Gilberto Min was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-2. Alexandre Mendonça stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Victor Oriol's shot from short distance in the 23rd minute. After a rather tough play, AM United's Lisandro Mourinho got a free kick in the 23rd minute. If Germano Rocha had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 26th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Fabio Francesco made a fantastic save in the 27th minute, when Juliano Freire sent off a good shot on target. In the 28th minute, Geronimo Piarres hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After 30 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for AM United! After 36 minutes of play, CONSTILIANO's Gilberto Min made it 0-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Alexandre Mendonça was left in no man's land by his defense there! When Inácio Telinhos came up free with the goalie in the 40th minute, the AM United fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Inácio Telinhos couldn't finish the play.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Juliano Freire to make the kick off. 51 minutes into the game, Lisandro Mourinho was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. AM United's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave CONSTILIANO the free kick. Lisandro Mourinho hit a great freekick 51 minutes into the match. Germano Rocha struck a weak shot in the 53rd minute. Fabio Francesco didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for AM United. In the 54th match minute, CONSTILIANO was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Carolo Cibran to maneuver through the defense. When the match had gone on for 56 minutes, Juliano Freire put it in 1-3 from a short distance just to the right of Fabio Francesco. After a defensive mix-up in AM United's zone, Victor Oriol stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Alexandre Mendonça came out of the goal and Victor Oriol tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Melquiades Matxin might have been able to make a better finish in the 72nd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Alexandre Mendonça. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Melquiades Matxin ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 81st minute, AM United's Yuri Palhares seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Yuri Palhares the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of AM United protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Yuri Palhares had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. In the 82nd match minute, AM United was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Yuri Palhares to maneuver through the defense. CONSTILIANO's Maximiliano Raymundo was substituted for Victor Oriol. CONSTILIANO made a substitution. Ulises Silvino replaced Ulises Otsando. In the 83rd minute, Yuri Palhares hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Carolo Cibran missed a clear chance of a goal when in the 85 minute of the game fired away a shot, but unfortunally the ball went out to the Alexandre Mendonça right hand side. Alexandre Mendonça showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Maximiliano Raymundo in the 93rd minute of the match.
