Spectators: 50 (Terracing: 38, Seating: 11, VIP seats: 1) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Gijsbert ter Kruimer kicked off to start the match. Gijsbert ter Kruimer scored 0-1 in the 4th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Uğurcan Çakır, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Andrej Kramarić could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 8th minute of the match, but Arnout Reekers made a huge save. Arnout Reekers showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Remigio Cembranos in the 12th minute of the match. After a rather tough play, Netherlands's Egbert Nijveldt got a free kick in the 26th minute. Gustaaf Groeneveldt scored 0-2 in the 29th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Uğurcan Çakır, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. An unexpectedly hard shot by Remigio Cembranos in the 35th minute of play forced Netherlands's goalkeeper Arnout Reekers to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Gustaaf Groeneveldt received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 37th minute. Uğurcan Çakır tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Mathijn Doctor kicked well hit freekick during the 39th minute of the match. Peter Springer kicked well hit freekick during the 45th minute of the match. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Arnout Reekers showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Andrej Kramarić, who was totally free with the ball in the 51st minute. In the 53rd minute Bjarte Sæverud shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Arnout Reekers saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The long shot by Gijsbert ter Kruimer in the 60th minute really tested Uğurcan Çakır's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. After 61 played minutes Netherlands got a freekick which was hit by Mathijn Doctor. The audience thought a goal was coming when Gustaaf Groeneveldt got free with Uğurcan Çakır in the 64th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Netherlands's Arnout Reekers played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Bjarte Sæverud in the 68th minute of play. 71 minutes into the match, Remigio Cembranos notched a goal, 1-2, 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. Gijsbert ter Kruimer sent away a hard shot on goal in the 74th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 77 minutes into the game, Remigio Cembranos was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Netherlands the free kick. After 78 played minutes ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG got a freekick which was hit by Remigio Cembranos. ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's Jonas Stemberg was substituted for Bjarte Sæverud. The supporters of Netherlands booed when ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 79 match minutes in a wonderful position. Remigio Cembranos didn't get a good kick on the ball. When the match clock showed 85 minutes, the score became 2-2 when Jonas Stemberg sped through Netherlands's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Arnout Reekers. Bas Tuitert was astounded when the referee showed him the red card after a seemingly innocent challenge, 91 minutes into the match. After 90 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Netherlands! In the 92nd minute, Remigio Cembranos made a precise shot to the right of Arnout Reekers. Netherlands's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 3-2. After a rather tough play, ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's Dénes Gera got a free kick in the 97th minute. ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's fans were exulted and cheered after their team won in a match that could easily have gone the other way.
