Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Antal Valentin kicked off to start the match. In the 5th minute, Borys Czeberowski hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Hungary's Major Barna got a good chance for a goal in the 10th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Antal Valentin recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 12th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 13th minute Kryspin Robak 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. Gwidon Cwojdak hit a great freekick 14 minutes into the match. Antal Valentin scored 0-1 in the 15th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Jan Pająk, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. After 19 minutes of play, Hungary's Major Barna made it 0-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Jan Pająk was left in no man's land by his defense there! When Antal Valentin came up free with the goalie in the 23rd minute, the Hungary 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 Antal Valentin couldn't finish the play. In the 32nd minute Takacs Tibor shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jan Pająk saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. A sloppy throw-in by Bakos Endre in the 39th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Abandon All Hope's John Lim. Jan Pająk didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Antal Valentin went, in the 40th minute, to the upper right corner, 0-3 was the resulting score. Jan Pająk came out of the goal in the 48th minute to try and stop a shot by Hungary's Major Barna. But to his dismay, Major Barna quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-4. Disappointed in the 0-4 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Gwidon Cwojdak was the one to do the kick off. An unexpectedly hard shot by Kryspin Robak in the 56th minute of play forced Hungary's goalkeeper Fodor Daniel to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Jan Pająk made a fantastic save in the 58th minute, when Major Barna sent off a good shot on target. Fodor Daniel showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Kryspin Robak, who was totally free with the ball in the 59th minute. In the 61st minute the ball was on its way in behind Hungary's goalkeeper Fodor Daniel, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. In the 62nd minute of the match, Antal Valentin got a very nice opportunity to score, but Jan Pająk was well-placed and pushed the ball away from the goal at the left post. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Gwidon Cwojdak during the 64th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. A collision led to Abandon All Hope getting a freekick after 64 minutes play. Gwidon Cwojdak hit a great ball. Abandon All Hope's Jan Pająk proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 67th minute of the match, managed to save Abandon All Hope from getting a goal against them. Jan Pająk was out of position in the 67 minute of play, and Major Barna capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. Major Barna really showed his touch with that goal: 0-5. Fodor Daniel took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Gwidon Cwojdak, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After some fancy dribbling in the 75th minute, Balazs Lajos managed to get in a good position for a shot. Hungary's supporters rose to their feet, but Balazs Lajos was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Jan Pająk breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Jan Pająk showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Hegedus Henrik in the 79th minute of the match. Hungary's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Antal Valentin in the 80th minute. If Major Barna had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 84th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After taking down the ball on Hungary's corner Antal Valentin fired away a hard shot, but the defenders efficiently covered the most dangerous angles and Jan Pająk quite easily take care of the ball. In the 95th minute the ball was on its way in behind Hungary's goalkeeper Fodor Daniel, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Hungary's players went to the stands to thank the travelling support. The fan's backing had helped spurr the team on to a fine performance that won them the match.
