The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Geraldo Salgado was the one to do the kick off. When Benê Vinhas came up free with the goalie in the 53rd minute, the FC Pankakes fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Benê Vinhas couldn't finish the play. In the 60th minute, Benê Vinhas hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Washington Mazza had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 62nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Geovânio Amorim recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 84th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. The referee blew the final whistle, and the away crowd roared, having watched Leões Potiguares eke out a victory against a very well matched opponent.
