Making his way up the middle 8 minutes into the match, A. Magalhães almost managed to squeeze a goal past the visitors' keeper, but the alert D. Carey blocked it to keep the score level. Some great play up the middle by eromao led to a chance for J. Farina to score after 41 minutes, but the shot hit the crossbar. 0 - 0 was the halftime score. eromao enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 68 percent of possession.

H. Westphalen's speed is always a threat when he gets a little room to move, and 47 minutes into the match was no different as he broke free of his man to send a delightful through ball to F. Corcoesto who knocked it in for porto2009. 0 - 1! After 52 minutes porto2009 tried to exploit their counterattacking skills, unfortunately, H. Westphalen's shot sailed wide after his break down the right. Some fine passing in the middle of the pitch, carving open the away defence, should have led to a goal for eromao, but L. Mendiola's shot went over the bar. eromao claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 63 percent.

eromao's top performer was clearly L. Mendiola. However, C. Fernandes made a disastrous appearance. F. Corcoesto performed admirably for porto2009. F. Alzogaray was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 1.
