Spectators: 150 (Terracing: 113, Seating: 34, VIP seats: 3) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Dorival Guimarães got the match started through his kick off. Raí Breckenfeld could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 2nd minute of the match, but Muhittin Eraltay made a huge save.

The audience thought a goal was coming when Eustacio Bastia got free with Arnaldo Couto in the 52nd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Muhittin Eraltay took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Raí Breckenfeld, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.

The LOTUS fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Muhittin Eraltay should have stopped the shot. Eustacio Bastia kicked a quick shot right in front of the goal in the 66thth minute. Though ot was a great shot Goth Cloudy Experience's keeper Arnaldo Couto was sill able to block leaving the score board unchanged. Goth Cloudy Experience's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Wambasther Terry in the 70th minute.

After a rather tough play, Goth Cloudy Experience's Dorival Guimarães got a free kick in the 77th minute. The long shot by Bahtiyar Visali in the 78th minute really tested Arnaldo Couto's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. Wambasther Terry sent away a hard shot on goal in the 82nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 86 minutes into the match, LOTUS's goal looked a bit too open when Wambasther Terry came free, but Muhittin Eraltay reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 89th minute, Eustacio Bastia got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. The audience was convinced that Wambasther Terry's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Muhittin Eraltay was relentless in the 92nd minute of the game. Many of LOTUS's supporters were seen to leave the ground early as it became clear their team was going to lose. LOTUS may have spent more time on the ball, but Goth Cloudy Experience were more willing to take their chances and they walked away with the win.
