Spectators: 44 (Terracing: 34, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Maksim Dunaevskiy started the match with the kick off. If Petr Klimovskiy had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 3rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Albin Holweck sent away a hard shot on goal in the 5th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Frank Sachs struck a weak shot in the 10th minute. Gleb Stroganov didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Germany. In the 13th minute, Grigoriy Kudryavtsev got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Germany's Tommy Kahn played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Grigoriy Kudryavtsev in the 14th minute of play. After some fancy dribbling in the 20th minute, Frank Sachs managed to get in a good position for a shot. Germany's supporters rose to their feet, but Frank Sachs was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Gleb Stroganov breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Geo-Winner's Gleb Stroganov played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Frank Sachs in the 24th minute of play. Maksim Dunaevskiy received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 26th minute. Tommy Kahn tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Gleb Stroganov didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Frank Sachs went, in the 28th minute, to the upper right corner, 1-1 was the resulting score. Maksim Dunaevskiy fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 31st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Tommy Kahn having to interfere. A collision led to Germany getting a freekick after 34 minutes play. Albin Holweck hit a great ball. Maksim Dunaevskiy who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 36thth minute tested the skills of Tommy Kahn when he managed to save the team from getting behind. In the 40th minute Maksim Dunaevskiy shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Tommy Kahn saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a rather tough play, Germany's Linus Schwerner got a free kick in the 47th minute. 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 wind increased when Frank Sachs made the kick off in the second half. In the 58th minute, Albin Holweck hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 59th minute Maksim Dunaevskiy shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Tommy Kahn saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 65th minute, Grigoriy Kudryavtsev left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Geo-Winner fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 4-1. After a defensive mix-up in Geo-Winner's zone, Frank Sachs stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Gleb Stroganov came out of the goal and Frank Sachs tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Grigoriy Kudryavtsev in the 72nd minute of play forced Germany's goalkeeper Tommy Kahn to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Geo-Winner's Mateusz Bochinski was first on the ball when the corner was shot and he dangerously headed the ball towards goal, but Tommy Kahn in the goal jumped up to prevent it from getting in. 75 minutes into the match, Albin Holweck dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Gleb Stroganov, 4-2. Gleb Stroganov took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Albin Holweck, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When the referee ended the match the Geo-Winner players were able to celebrate. They had won a fair victory and recieved the ovations of their fans.
