With the score tied, the Police took a new lease on life and attacked persistently. Souza saved a "certain" goal from a header from Simpson after receiving a centre from Chooklantzeff, Breaking away in the 25th minute, Lubeck was fouled some five yards outside of the back area. Oliveira took the kick. The ball hit one of the defenders and bounced back for Oliveira to try a long shot. Crook handled and referee Droessel awarded a 12-yard kick. Souza drove a low shot straight to the keeper, but the letter failed to make a catch and the ball slipped between his legs into the net.
Both goals had narrow escapes during the remaining period. The Portuguese were extremely poor in shooting, driving straight to the Police custodian from point-blank range on several occasions. Had those shots gone a few inches wider the Clube would have won handily.
