Stadion Messken
Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Iwan Kaminski kicked off to start the match. After having played for 3 minutes, Mikolaj Babicki managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Messken's supporters crossed their fingers, but Mikolaj Babicki was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After a defensive mix-up in Messken's zone, Bartosz Barys stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Rafal Brudnicki came out of the goal and Bartosz Barys tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The audience thought a goal was coming when Mikolaj Babicki got free with Boryslaw Naujasodis in the 9th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. After 13 played minutes Messken got a freekick which was hit by Walery Kochanowski. In the 18th minute the ball was on its way in behind Messken's goalkeeper Rafal Brudnicki, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Stefan Rywin during the 18th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After 19 played minutes Messken got a freekick which was hit by Stefan Rywin. In the 21st minute the ball was on its way in behind Messken's goalkeeper Rafal Brudnicki, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Witold Pawelczyk charged in rather forcefully in the 24th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Witold Pawelczyk the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Witold Pawelczyk hit a great freekick 24 minutes into the match. 32 minutes into the match, Bartosz Barys had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Rafal Brudnicki. Messken's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Bartosz Barys was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. After some fancy dribbling in the 38th minute, Iwan Kaminski managed to get in a good position for a shot. Messken's supporters rose to their feet, but Iwan Kaminski was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Boryslaw Naujasodis breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Simeon Rojewski made a kick off. The supporters of Messken booed when Brzozów SSA was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 53 match minutes in a wonderful position. Nicodemos Misiewicz didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Matyja Fedosz fell near the penalty area in the 55th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Brzozów SSA's protests and gave Matyja Fedosz a yellow card for diving instead. Matyja Fedosz kicked well hit freekick during the 55th minute of the match. Mikolaj Babicki sent away a hard shot on goal in the 61st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Bartosz Barys received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 70th minute. Rafal Brudnicki tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Brzozów SSA's Boryslaw Naujasodis played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Iwan Kaminski in the 73rd minute of play. After 74 minutes, Bogdan Jaks mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Brzozów SSA and the Messken players grew even worse after the yellow card.

In the 81st minute, Nawoj Rostow hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The supporters of Brzozów SSA booed when Messken was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 91 match minutes in a wonderful position. Stefan Rywin didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 93rd minute Simeon Rojewski shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Rafal Brudnicki saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Iwan Kaminski in the 94th minute of play forced Brzozów SSA's goalkeeper Boryslaw Naujasodis to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The teams fought very hard right up to the final whistle. Both sets of players were happy to go away with a draw.
