Henriksdalskajens SK's Holer Nolan played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Gijsbert ter Kruimer in the 32nd minute of play. Gijsbert ter Kruimer took the ball and in the 32 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Holer Nolan.

After 42 played minutes Henriksdalskajens SK got a freekick which was hit by Hubert Ahlquist. In the 44th minute, Netherlands's Egbert Nijveldt seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Egbert Nijveldt the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of Netherlands protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Egbert Nijveldt had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. In a very dangerous position, a player in Netherlands fell when an opponent tried to get the ball from him in the 44th minute. Penalty! The goalkeeper, Arnout Reekers, was totally fooled by Henriksdalskajens SK's Eldad Te Vrede, who 46 minutes into the game made a penalty shot that went in on the goalkeeper's left side. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Gustaaf Groeneveldt stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. An unexpectedly hard shot by Markus Vik in the 51st minute of play forced Netherlands's goalkeeper Arnout Reekers to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Gustaaf Groeneveldt came free with the goalkeeper in the 55th minute of the match, and shot straight on target. The shot was a little too simple and Holer Nolan could save by the left post. Netherlands were awarded a corner in the 56th minute after Henriksdalskajens SK's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Gijsbert ter Kruimer took the corner. A nice corner shot did that Gijsbert ter Kruimer got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Holer Nolan quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. Wim Wilmes fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 57th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Holer Nolan having to interfere. 61 minutes into the match, Eldad Te Vrede had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Arnout Reekers. Netherlands's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Eldad Te Vrede was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-1. Lars Meesters 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. Arnout Reekers made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Raivo Kuhi in the 74th minute of play. A collision led to Netherlands getting a freekick after 80 minutes play. Bas Tuitert hit a great ball. 81 minutes into the match, Eldad Te Vrede notched a goal, 3-1, to the right of Netherlands's Arnout Reekers. Arnout Reekers was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Holer Nolan didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Gustaaf Groeneveldt went, in the 87th minute, to the upper right corner, 3-2 was the resulting score. If Gustaaf Groeneveldt had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 92nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.
