Guara 7 - 1 VISUART (379907284)

The weather was pretty good, and a crowd of 451 had shown up at Covil do Lobo for the match. Luca D'Angelantonio was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Bronisław Fortuński and Anésio Alfaia. Guara had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. They fielded: Beck - Leme Vaz, Baños, Querol, Saraiva - Moura Rocha, 中村 (Nakamura), Dafunquia, Campos Cruz - Maldonado, Panguinha.

VISUART decided to use a 4-5-1 set up. The following players took the field: Amapaense - Rosa Lopes, Campos Cruz, Taveiros, Paes Mendes - Saci, Mesquita, Cardia, Barcellos, Velasco - Seixas.

Today, Guara's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. VISUART mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. Guara's G. Campos Cruz was dominating his wing and kept sending fine balls into the opposition's box - L. Maldonado managed to volley one of them into the net to make it 1 - 0 after 2 minutes. 靖. 中村 (Nakamura) increased the lead for Guara to 2 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! VISUART had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle attacks. 24 minutes into the game, VISUART seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a weak level of organisation. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Guara to 3 - 0 as B. Dafunquia finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. VISUART managed to reduce the score to 3 - 1 as J. Mesquita finished off a well-played combination from the left, easily carving through the defence. Guara solidified their lead at the 35 minute mark, as J. Saraiva dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 4 - 1. By now, the players in Guara felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. 4 - 1 was the score after the first half. Guara had most of the ball, with 61 percent of possession.

Despite his frustration resulting in the smashing of a few teacups, the coach of VISUART was able to get his message across, and raised VISUART's organisation to passable. Players in Guara heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their central attacks to the wings instead. Things were deteriorating for the away team as Guara scored another to make it 5 - 1 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for B. Dafunquia after 53 minutes. 60 minutes into the game, VISUART had difficulty finding their positions and their organisation dropped to weak. Guara managed to extend their lead to 6 - 1 when 靖. 中村 (Nakamura) cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper. Coming from the right, H. Moura Rocha almost managed to score another goal for Guara, but his header was tipped over the bar by the visitors' keeper. Cheers filled the stadium as J. Panguinha broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 7 - 1 to Guara. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave D. Paes Mendes from VISUART a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 89 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! Possession in this half belonged to Guara, who controlled the ball 74 percent of the time.

The most dominating Guara player was without a doubt J. Panguinha. However, M. Beck made a disastrous appearance. VISUART's top performer was clearly J. Seixas. On the other hand, A. Amapaense's play was disheartening. The match ends 7 - 1.
