The referee in charge of tonight's game is Willian Aparecido, who was born in Brasil and belongs to the college of Sergipe. He is a referee in the style of Pierluigi Collina, who does not tolerate foul play, and will not allow player's disputing his decisions or throwing their toys out of the pram!

Min.3, Luís Felisbino of Clube Náutico Taguatinga shoots but hits the bar. He's got a crack at the rebound all alone in front of Paulo Dianu... how did he miss that?! Unbelievable. Min.4, great run down the left wing by Marcos Antonio da Rosa who spots Frederico Lazzaretti in acres of space and tries to pick him out, but that was just naff. Min.12, Gökçek Ortega is unable to get past Edcarlos Correia who steals the ball with a great challenge.Gökçek Ortega must have been watching too much boring football lately, he's complaining to the ref about a perfectly legal tackle. Min.16, César Santos Santana makes a good run in from the right touchline, before going 1-on-1 with Benny de Almeida, who eventually wins the ball and clears it away. Min.20, Goooaaaaaaal !!!, Alessandro de Sousa did some good driblings from the center of the field going very close oponent goalkeeper but when everything seemed that the player was going to kick did a very good pass to Denilson Melo, who only has to drive the ball into goal, who did the pass told with his mind 'Score you, because for me would be easier'. The scores now stand at 0-1. You can hear a pin drop in this stadium after the away team opened the score board. Have the home fans had cold water poured over their heads? Even the hooligans are quiet now, amazing! Min.24, Ilson Paulino can't get away from Toninho Metidieri and loses the ball before he has the chance to send a cross in. Min.40, slightly mistimed tackle by Benny de Almeida there, which sent Alessandro de Sousa sprawling. Free-kick. Min.41, Denilson Melo spannered that completely, much to the amusement of the opposition fans.

Min.45, the refs blown up for half time before the allocated injury time has been played and now he's sprinting off down the tunnel, guess he's been caught short. The current score is 0-1. Both teams had an equal ball possession.

Min.50, Alexandre Jardel sends a lovely pass to the feet of Alessandro de Sousa who races through the defence going 1-on-1 with the keeper.... beautiful goal! The referee's disallowed it; the linesman's flag was up. I don't think he got that one right, and the players agree. Alessandro de Sousa has lost his temper and wants to go have words with the assistant. He's having to be restrained by his team mates. You can understand his frustration. The ref is taking no bull today and Alessandro de Sousa is booked for complaining. Min.58, César Santos Santana sees space on the byline and he runs into it and crosses towards the head of Denilson Melo. However, Edilio Cesar decided he fancied doing his job and cleared it with an assured header. Denilson Melo, is holding his side on the ground and complaining bitterly about Edilio Cesar's elbow to his ribs at the same time, what a talent he has there...get up you nancy. Min.61, Ilson Paulino crosses for Denilson Melo, his marker Benny de Almeida trips over and after some grappling, both players end up in a mess on the floor, they want a penalty but they're not getting it. Min.69, José Carlos Paulino shoots from distance, but it will take something special to beat Marinho Caipo who gathers it with ease. Min.79, high kick of Clube Náutico Taguatinga after a wonderful forward pass through the defense by Itamar Oscar to Luís Felisbino couldn't finish off that great move by Clube Náutico Taguatinga. Luís Felisbino protested about the shirt pulling he was the victim of. The ref is taking no bull today and Luís Felisbino is booked for complaining. Min.86, Edilio Cesar is desperate for movement from his colleagues, but none comes so he shot towards the goal from outside the area. Easily gathered by Paulo Dianu. Min.88, 'deviated kick of Leandro Oscar, in a play which started by a great cross from the right side of Gökçek Ortega and a wonderful head pass of Itamar Oscar right in front of an open goal. He failed ,miserably.'My blind 74-year old grandma would've even scored that'.
