Spectators: 42 (Terracing: 32, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Han Fan Hong took the kick off in the first half of the match. Han Fan Hong might have been able to make a better finish in the 3rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Khalid Kennedy. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Han Fan Hong ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 6th minute the ball was on its way in behind Glemmingebro IF's goalkeeper Uno Vester, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. In the 20th match minute, England was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Issac Dawson to maneuver through the defense. Khalid Kennedy took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Han Fan Hong, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 25th minute, Han Fan Hong reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Khalid Kennedy. The goal made the score 2-1. Han Fan Hong struck a weak shot in the 29th minute. Khalid Kennedy didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Glemmingebro IF. After 31 minutes, Caelan Hayes mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the England and the Glemmingebro IF players grew even worse after the yellow card. Caelan Hayes hit a great freekick 31 minutes into the match. After a rather tough play, England's Quinn Holmes got a free kick in the 34th minute. 38 minutes into the match, Glemmingebro IF's goal looked a bit too open when Micah Macdonald came free, but Uno Vester reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After a rather tough play, Glemmingebro IF's Sonny Jönsätt got a free kick in the 41st minute.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Kyle Cox made a kick off. In the 52nd minute Karl-Erik Bergqvist shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Khalid Kennedy saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. A nice corner shot did that Dorival Veiga got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Khalid Kennedy quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. After a defensive mix-up in England's zone, Lavern Rocha stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Khalid Kennedy came out of the goal and Lavern Rocha tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Uno Vester was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Kyle Cox showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 2-3 in the 67 minute of play. Glemmingebro IF made a substitution. Dominic Szoboszlai replaced Maciej Haskiewicz. With a little luck, Glemmingebro IF's Uno Vester got control of the ball when Micah Macdonald tried to sneak it across the goal line. 72 minutes into the match, Micah Macdonald notched a goal, 2-4, to the right of Glemmingebro IF's Uno Vester. Uno Vester was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Glemmingebro IF's Uno Vester played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Kyle Cox in the 77th minute of play. 78 minutes into the match, Glemmingebro IF's goalkeeper Uno Vester had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Issac Dawson. Glemmingebro IF made a substitution. Samuel Utter replaced Karl-Erik Bergqvist. After having played for 89 minutes, Issac Dawson managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. England's supporters crossed their fingers, but Issac Dawson was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. The supporters of England booed when Glemmingebro IF was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 92 match minutes in a wonderful position. Joel Botvidsson didn't get a good kick on the ball. England's fans were overjoyed with their teams well-earned victory and stayed in the stadium long after the final whistle to celebrate the win.
