For their match strategy, Tamagotchi had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. Loucos clearly preferred using their ability to attack in the middle. Many thought A. Vereza ought to have been awarded a penalty 17 minutes into the game, as he went down trying to dribble around F. Amor after a determined run through the middle. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave J. Teixerinha from Tamagotchi a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 24 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! Tamagotchi created a good opportunity to score 27 minutes into the match when G. Dadivoso's hooked ball from the left created a scuffle in front of the goal, and the visitors' defenders had a hard time clearing the ball. The game was close to savage at times, and Tamagotchi's J. Teixerinha received a second yellow card after 32 minutes; his ticket out of the game. P. Milanezi was the unlucky victim and couldn't continue the game, so Loucos's J. Aleixo had to come off the bench. Making his way up the middle 34 minutes into the match, S. Pierezza almost managed to squeeze a goal past the visitors' keeper, but the alert F. Amor blocked it to keep the score level. After 38 minutes, Loucos's B. Teixerinha fell awkwardly, but was determined to stay in the match. That's the spirit! T. Almansa gave the visitors the lead 39 minutes into the match to make it 0 - 1. The goal was scored from the penalty spot after a handball in the penalty area. 0 - 1 was the score after the first half. Tamagotchi had most of the ball, with 60 percent of possession.

Tamagotchi claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 60 percent.

The most dominating Tamagotchi player was without a doubt N. Bello. V. Blanco on the other hand, had a terrible day. F. Amor performed admirably for Loucos. On the other hand, R. dos Reis's play was disheartening. The match ends 0 - 1.
