Poznań Arena
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Herbert Polakowski started the match with the kick off. After 3 minutes of play, Husaria Poznań's Alfred Wozniak made it 1-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Napoleon Maziarski was left in no man's land by his defense there! Alfred Wozniak received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 7th minute. Napoleon Maziarski tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

When Alfred Wozniak came up free with the goalie in the 16th minute, the Husaria Poznań fans jumped to their feet.

In the 45th minute Herbert Polakowski shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Radoslaw Borcz saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

Husaria Poznań's supporters rose to their feet, but Sebastian Lenertej was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post.
