Sparta Torex
Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Zdzislaw Topolski started the match with the kick off. After a rather tough play, Germany's Sven Krakouer got a free kick in the 4th minute. The long shot by Przemyslaw Hendzel in the 5th minute really tested Tommy Kahn's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. After a rather tough play, Sparta Torex's Miroslaw Czerwinski got a free kick in the 6th minute. In the 12th minute, Albin Holweck hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. An unexpectedly hard shot by Albin Holweck in the 14th minute of play forced Sparta Torex's goalkeeper Fabian Rzeszutek to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Albin Holweck received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 17th minute. Fabian Rzeszutek tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 25 minutes into the match, Sparta Torex's goal looked a bit too open when Albin Holweck came free, but Fabian Rzeszutek reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 27 minutes into the match, Germany's Frank Sachs sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Fabian Rzeszutek narrowly saved just below the crossbar. After having played for 32 minutes, Zdzislaw Topolski managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Sparta Torex's supporters crossed their fingers, but Zdzislaw Topolski was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. When Zdzislaw Topolski came up free with the goalie in the 42nd minute, the Sparta Torex fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Zdzislaw Topolski couldn't finish the play. In the 45th minute, Frank Sachs made a precise shot to the right of Fabian Rzeszutek. Sparta Torex's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-2. Fabian Rzeszutek stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Frank Sachs's shot from short distance in the 48th minute. Disappointed in the 0-2 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Frank Sachs stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Frank Sachs sent away a hard shot on goal in the 52nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Frank Sachs had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 56th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Fabian Rzeszutek took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Frank Sachs, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Frank Sachs struck a weak shot in the 71st minute. Fabian Rzeszutek didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Germany. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Miroslaw Czerwinski during the 76th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After a defensive mix-up in Germany's zone, Tolek Glozor stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Tommy Kahn came out of the goal and Tolek Glozor tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Tommy Kahn showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Zdzislaw Topolski, who was totally free with the ball in the 79th minute. After a rather tough play, Germany's Albin Holweck got a free kick in the 81st minute. In the 84th minute, Frank Sachs ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Fabian Rzeszutek was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-4. 89 minutes into the match, Germany's goal looked a bit too open when Tolek Glozor came free, but Tommy Kahn reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Albin Holweck sent away a hard shot on goal in the 92nd minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Fabian Rzeszutek didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Frank Sachs went, in the 92nd minute, to the upper right corner, 0-5 was the resulting score. An unexpectedly hard shot by Frank Sachs in the 92nd minute of play forced Sparta Torex's goalkeeper Fabian Rzeszutek to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.
