In the 13th minute, Jeferson Melo hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.

After having played for 37 minutes, Elias Strömqvist managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

France's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Björkö BK the free kick. The supporters of Björkö BK booed when France was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 41 match minutes in a wonderful position. Remy Dupuy didn't get a good kick on the ball. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Frank Peletier was the one to do the kick off. Camille Baume succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 2-1 in the 52nd playminute.

The France fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-2. Jean Bombelles kicked well hit freekick during the 91st minute of the match. If Camille Baume had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 95th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Camille Baume recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 96th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. France were disappointed that they only managed a draw, even though they felt themselves to be the better team.
