Spectators: 42 (Terracing: 32, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Antal Valentin made the kick off which started today's match. Diego De Lorenzi sent away a hard shot on goal in the 9th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After a defensive mix-up in A.S. Ian Fenomeni's zone, Major Barna stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Emiliano De Zorzi came out of the goal and Major Barna tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Major Barna took the ball and in the 15 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Emiliano De Zorzi. Emiliano De Zorzi dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-1. Diego De Lorenzi in the 18thth minute had a little luck and got a chance for a shot in front of the goal. Without hesitation aimed to the right of Fodor Daniel, who managed to lunge to the right direction and made a save. After a rather tough play, A.S. Ian Fenomeni's Antonio Iezzi got a free kick in the 18th minute. Fodor Daniel showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ferdinando Mariano, who was totally free with the ball in the 22nd minute. After some careless play in the A.S. Ian Fenomeni defense, Major Barna kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Emiliano De Zorzi. The A.S. Ian Fenomeni fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Emiliano De Zorzi should have stopped the shot. Emiliano De Zorzi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Major Barna in the 37th minute of play. Takacs Tibor sent away a hard shot on goal in the 39th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Antal Valentin took the ball and in the 47 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Emiliano De Zorzi. Emiliano De Zorzi dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 0-4. After the first half Hungary were leading 0-4. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Ferdinando Mariano stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. An unexpectedly hard shot by Takacs Tibor in the 61st minute of play forced A.S. Ian Fenomeni's goalkeeper Emiliano De Zorzi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 63rd minute, Katona Janos left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Hungary fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-6. Antal Valentin recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 66th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After some fancy dribbling in the 68th minute, Ferdinando Mariano managed to get in a good position for a shot. A.S. Ian Fenomeni's supporters rose to their feet, but Ferdinando Mariano was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Fodor Daniel breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 69th minute Antal Valentin shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Emiliano De Zorzi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Emiliano De Zorzi made an important save on a dangerous shot by Antal Valentin in the 74th minute. An unexpected shot in the 76th minute by Antal Valentin got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. If Flavio Guidone had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 79th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. The crowd rose to their feet as Hungary's Takacs Tibor slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Emiliano De Zorzi. That made the score 0-7 after 80 minutes of play. 83 minutes into the match, Hungary's Antal Valentin sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Emiliano De Zorzi narrowly saved just below the crossbar. A.S. Ian Fenomeni's Emiliano De Zorzi played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Major Barna in the 84th minute of play. The supporters of A.S. Ian Fenomeni booed when Hungary was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 85 match minutes in a wonderful position. Major Barna didn't get a good kick on the ball. When the match had gone on for 93 minutes, Major Barna took a quick shot and it went in 0-8 without a chance for Emiliano De Zorzi to make any attempt to save it. After 98 minutes of play, Hungary's Antal Valentin made it 0-9 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Emiliano De Zorzi was left in no man's land by his defense there! The A.S. Ian Fenomeni fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. Hungary were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
