Lucjan Juzda made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 1-0. 19 minutes into the match, Degeberga's goal looked a bit too open when Wiktor Uggla came free, but Linus Hybbert reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

After 30 minutes, Di Maria mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Degeberga and the Årsta FF players grew even worse after the yellow card. Di Maria hit a great freekick 32 minutes into the match. Anton Johansson took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 32nd minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Linus Hybbert. Degeberga's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. In the 34th minute, Osvald Malm reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Lucjan Juzda. The goal made the score 3-0. Linus Hybbert showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Claes Strömbom in the 38th minute of the match. Folker Alberts received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Lucjan Juzda came out and tried to block the shot, but Folker Alberts slotted it home off the left post making it 4-0 in the 43rd minute. In the 46th minute, Steve Galloway hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Linus Hybbert showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Roy Bergqvist, who was totally free with the ball in the 47th minute. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 4-0 at half-time.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Folker Alberts to make the kick off. After some fancy dribbling in the 51st minute, Osvald Malm managed to get in a good position for a shot. Degeberga's supporters rose to their feet, but Osvald Malm was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Lucjan Juzda breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 53rd minute Claes Strömbom shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Linus Hybbert saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Degeberga's Osvald Malm pulled a muscle in his back after 65 minutes and couldn't finish the game. Degeberga made a substitution. Maurício Quintanilha replaced Osvald Malm. In the 66th match minute, Årsta FF was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Gustav Abrahamsson to maneuver through the defense. Jesper Hultstrand recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 67th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Lucjan Juzda showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Maurício Quintanilha in the 70th minute of the match. A collision led to Degeberga getting a freekick after 72 minutes play. Jesper Hultstrand hit a great ball. In the 73rd minute of the match Algot Anselius shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Linus Hybbert showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. A sloppy throw-in by Anton Johansson in the 75th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Degeberga's Steve Galloway. If Folker Alberts had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 77th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Degeberga's Sture Låsberg was substituted for Di Maria. After 93 minutes, Maurício Quintanilha made it 7-1 with a short kick to the right side. Årsta FF's Lucjan Juzda tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. There was no doubt that Degeberga were the better team. Degeberga's players enjoyed the ovations of the crowd after the victory.
