Porto Eclipse had some difficulty to wake up from that nightmare but over the minutes they began to do some attacks and over 27 minutes Nev Sigma finally free from opponent ran to the box and inside give the chance to Bill Brown shine but he's punch takes the direction of the goal.

The Puritans had a little more ball possession then the opponent but they only get more advantage with a solid pass attempt (67% against 59%) and better dribble stats (67% against only 38%)! The Puritans attack versus Blackout FC™ defence was the history of the match! The Puritans try to score as fast as possible and with more ball possession that goal was almost certain (the only factor was the time of the goal) but they found a well organized Blackout FC™  defence. The Puritans on attack over attack don´t even let Blackout FC™ breathe and explore some surprise counterattack. Miguel Costa and Dani Egídio were the Blackout FC™  players that got more attention. After so many attempts The Puritans only got the relieve at minute 82 when Pu Ta get the ball inside the box and on a beautiful "slow-motion" dribble beat Dani Egídio.

Who can ask for a better start? Setemares can! Although the game was in its early adaptation and Setemares with a well planed attack from the wing get fast the 1st goal by François Zoko that start to make the Joseja Hombrados night on a real nightmare! Setemares make this game seem easy with excellent attack moves from the wings (67% on dribble is very good) getting the fans eyes 2 players on this night: François Zoko and Joe Shank. Ataporquinhos 2.0 had extreme difficult to control the opponent attacks (even sometimes with 5 or 6 players in defensive process) on a bad night to the SD Toni Mieres and Xavi Navas. But Ataporquinhos 2.0 nightmare get a higher level when 30 minutes François Zoko on a first shot make Joseja Hombrados work but a "scary movie" began not only with the bad punch but with a "extreme" block by François Zoko that get a goal! If until then it wasn't enough to Ataporquinhos 2.0, Joe Shank makes the final goal in dribble at 35 minutes! After that moment Setemares slow the offensive pace but they don't give up as the stats show (ending with 10 shots attempt). Ataporquinhos 2.0 don't even get the chance to organize attack moves or get near the opponent box to surprise them! Can now Ataporquinhos 2.0 rise from this nightmare? We hope so!

FC Estuera over the first minutes began to realize that their wingers had advantage from the SD Ignazio Abate and belmin muslimovic that over the 90 minutes only get 33% of tackle. This way it was the perfect moment to Lambe Mos & Otto Bünz make FC Estuera attack work. With good team work FC Estuera start getting near the goal and BHFanaticos had more difficult to more from there own midfield until minute 40 began the "show time" by Max Petursson: 1st start making the GK Mr. No Name work well on 2 shots but on the 3rd attempt it was unbeatable. BHFanaticos try to react from that goal but they find a good organization by FC Estuera that was recovering with pressure the ball. 2nd time FC Estuera look for the goal that give more safety to any surprises and on a brilliant move from the attack players give again Max Petursson the chance to beat the GK Mr. No Name at 62 minutes. BHFanaticos don´t give up to find 1 goal but it was difficult if they do not shot! Well play by BHFanaticos on the defence that only a higher level FC Estuera could brake.
