The referee in charge of tonight's game is Eliomar Vederson, who was born in Brasil and belongs to the college of Amazonas. 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.10, Rogério Vinicius advanced down the right wing and sent in a powerful cross, which is heading into the net. However that did not end in goal thanks to the magnificent intervention of Caio Saragosa , who managed to clear the ball to corner with the tip of his fingers. Caio Saragosa thinks he was pushed and lets the ref know about it. The ref is taking no bull today and Caio Saragosa is booked for complaining. Min.11, Goaaaaal !!!, That's a nicely weighted cross from Álvaro Beiruth into the box... Toninho Peres is there to meet it with a beautiful first touch effort straight into the back of the net! Surely a contender for the goal of the season?! The scores 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.14, Kléber Guedes makes a good run in from the right touchline, before going 1-on-1 with Renan Mattioni, who eventually wins the ball and clears it away. Min.20, Goal !!!, Venâncio Sóbis makes a series of dummy's and turns giving him the space to pass the ball to José Mattioni who is open. He connects with a beautiful first touch, hitting an unstoppable shot straight towards the goal. The score now stands at 0-2. Pessimism invaded the stadium terraces. The fans were totally quiet, that goal was a severe blow for them. Min.23, miss for Futebol Acre. Cross by Agostinho Zé Roberto from the left wing towards Nilton Diniz , who gets his head on it, but there's no real power on it and Carvalho Blumer has no trouble catching that. Min.28, Kléber Guedes got on the on the end of that poor clearance by the defence and calmly chested the ball down and struck a beautiful half volley towards the goal. It looked as if the keeper tipped that over, but the ref's given a goal kick. Great effort! Min.31, Wilson Kléberson spots Nilton Diniz breaking free from his marker, but his attempted pass into the space in front is easily intercepted by the defence. Min.39, Gooooool !!!, Breno Nery sent a good through ball into the path of Álvaro Beiruth who instantly fires past the keeper. Now the score is 0-3. The fans can't believe this result. Several fans were waving the symbolic white tissues... The manager should watch his head seriously. Unfortunately for them it's not the only problem... several fans are already leaving the stadium and the match isn't over yet! Min.43, Alex Ceni played a measured pass to the right to Rogério Vinicius who prepared himself to send a cross in, but failed as he was almost decapitated by George Costa. The referee gave the foul. Yellow card for George Costa, he knew what he was doing there and it worked. He doesn't mind taking one for the team. Min.44, Caio Saragosa finishes the orders to his wall and the ref blows for the free kick to be taken by Álvaro Beiruth. Not a bad effort at all, but it didnt curl enough and goes behind for a goal kick.

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 0-3. The home team had 51 %. possession of the ball.

Min.49, Emerson Macedo put a cross in towards Agostinho Zé Roberto at the front post, but Carvalho Blumer came and made a superb punch out in a difficult position. Min.51, That shot by Associação Desportiva Cascavel was so close! The move started on the left hand side, Helinho Leão didn't have any support, so decided to take the defence on himself, he managed to weave his way to the edge of the area and instantly unleashed a powerful shot that rattled the bar. Helinho Leão has his hands on his head, that was a tremendous effort. Min.70, how rubbish of Nilton Diniz. Wilson Kléberson put the ball on a plate for him and instead of hitting it with his right foot it cannoned of his left shin wide of the goal. Hmmm, why is he playing in this team? Min.75, Toninho Peres shoots from distance, but it will take something special to beat Caio Saragosa who gathers it with ease. Min.82, Alex Ceni drove the ball without problems in the midfield but upon arriving at his intended destination, his brakes failed and he suffered a nasty crash with the pain train, otherwise known as, Amauri Claro and the referee gave the foul. Min.83, Álvaro Beiruth sent in a dangerous cross shot free-kick, but it did not surprise Caio Saragosa, who was able to protect his goal from the the ball with his fingertips. Min.84, Kerlon Bahia sends a lovely pass to the feet of Douglas Nascimento 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. Douglas Nascimento 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 Douglas Nascimento is booked for complaining.

Min.90, and that's the end of the game here, the teams make their way off the field to the applause of the crowds. The game finished 0-3. The home team had 51 %. possession of the ball.


The final score of this cup final between Futebol Acre - Associação Desportiva Cascavel is 0-3, congratulations to Associação Desportiva Cascavel, who pass to the next round of his country Cup.
