The first few chances created by Benfica at the beginning of the game were mainly through interplay between Simão and Zlatko Zahovič. On 21 minutes, Porto's influential midfield talisman Diego sustained an injury which required him to be replaced by César Peixoto. The introduction of Peixoto saw Porto possess more of an attacking threat going forward. This led to Porto's first chance of the game on 29 minutes where Peixoto tested Benfica's Quim from distance. The most clear cut chance of the first half fell to Benfica's Zahovič on 30 minutes. Zahovič combined with Manuel dos Santos, who crossed the ball into the 18-yard box and found an unmarked Zahovič, who could not capitalize after his shot was blocked by a Porto defender for a corner. Benfica, for the remainder of the half, would apply pressure on Porto's defense but was unable to get a breakthrough and score the opening goal of the game. Benfica began the second half dominating possession just like the first half. On 55 minutes, Benfica lost possession of the ball in the middle of the pitch. Carlos Alberto picked up the ball and threaded the ball to an unmarked Ricardo Quaresma on the left wing who beat Benfica defender Argel and then fired the ball past Quim to give Porto the lead. Despite Porto's lead, Benfica began to create more chances and squandered several chances from set pieces from Luisão and Tomo Šokota. As the game drew to a close, Porto began to get more men behind the ball to protect their lead. Their strategy would pay off as Porto would hold out for the win and consequently capture their 14th Supertaça.
