Weather conditions were fairly good for football, and Bombonera da Zona Sul saw a crowd turnout of 33087. Tewano Shapiro was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Erhard Hackl and Mouss Hanne. Fuguetaço decided to use a 5-4-1 set up. Starters: Obregón - Gaúcho, Kolyazin, Ribeiro Cunha, Neyra, Newman Spaul - Moseqani, Paseka, Cochard, Delsol - Fortão.

A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Lajeadense. They fielded: Kordulec - Mityaev, Arquillué, Piwowar - Ketomäki, dos Santos, Baldursson, Dumas, Topchiy - Palčukas, Tarazona.

Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of Fuguetaço. Lajeadense immediately set off using their skill at pressing their opponents. It wasn't a pretty goal, but the free kick by J. Paseka after 13 minutes somehow found its way past the keeper. Fuguetaço takes the lead, 1 - 0! With 28 minutes played, V. Neyra of Fuguetaço fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. The referee showed Fuguetaço's P. Ribeiro Cunha the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Lajeadense's A. Mityaev was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 32 minutes. It was 1 - 0 at the break. Fuguetaço had most of the ball, with 74 percent of possession.

Fuguetaço's J. Paseka struck his penalty well enough to beat the goalkeeper and extend the home team's lead to 2 - 0 after 63 minutes. After 80 minutes, Lajeadense's I. Tarazona fell awkwardly, but was determined to stay in the match. That's the spirit! 83 minutes into the game, Fuguetaço seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a weak level of organisation. J. Palčukas of Lajeadense received a yellow card after 84 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Almost all the way down to the corner flag, Lajeadense's V. Ketomäki somehow managed to get a perfect pass into the middle, impossible to miss for J. Palčukas, who struck for 2 - 1. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Fuguetaço, with 68 percent of the ball.

The most dominating Fuguetaço player was without a doubt P. Ribeiro Cunha. R. Delsol was a disappointment, however. J. Palčukas performed admirably for Lajeadense. On the other hand, A. Dumas's play was disheartening. The match ends 2 - 1.
