After the restart, Estrela Amadora pressed. Kaíque saved from Rodrigo Pinho early in the half, and substitute Jovane Borges struck the left post soon after.

Injuries forced changes for Nacional, with Daniel Júnior replacing Miguel Baeza after the interval. Léo Santos then supplied Paulinho Boia for a composed finish (71.) that sealed the points.

Nacional recorded 16 attempts, with four on target. Estrela Amadora produced 11 attempts and hit the woodwork once.
