Spectators: 41 (Terracing: 32, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) Aaron Tello started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. The Hungary fans' excitement grew in the 6th match minute when Hungary's Major Barna looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. Hungary's Fodor Daniel proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 15th minute of the match, managed to save Hungary from getting a goal against them. Renan Mendes made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Antal Valentin in the 18th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Aaron Tello in the 20th minute of play forced Hungary's goalkeeper Fodor Daniel to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Renan Mendes made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Antal Valentin in the 26th minute of play. 35 minutes into the match, Major Barna had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Renan Mendes. Matanza and Steelers's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Major Barna was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-2. Matanza and Steelers's Renan Mendes played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Major Barna in the 37th minute of play. Renan Mendes showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Balazs Lajos, who was totally free with the ball in the 44th minute. 47 minutes into the match, Matanza and Steelers's goal looked a bit too open when Antal Valentin came free, but Renan Mendes reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The Matanza and Steelers players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Hungary were winning 1-2.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Antal Valentin made a kick off. An unexpectedly hard shot by Takacs Tibor in the 55th minute of play forced Matanza and Steelers's goalkeeper Renan Mendes to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Antal Valentin fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 56th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Renan Mendes having to interfere. If Aaron Tello had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 62nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 69 played minutes Hungary got a freekick which was hit by Szekeres Tamas. In the 70th minute Renan Correia shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Fodor Daniel saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 75 minutes into the game, Takacs Tibor recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Renan Mendes. Takacs Tibor showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 1-3. 79 minutes into the match, Hungary's goal looked a bit too open when Aaron Tello came free, but Fodor Daniel reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Jacek Limanowski fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 86th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Fodor Daniel having to interfere. Hungary's Major Barna got a good chance for a goal in the 87th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Balazs Lajos sent away a hard shot on goal in the 95th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When the match was over Hungary could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than Matanza and Steelers throughout the match.
