When Áron Jánosi came up free with the goalie in the 11th minute, the Újlõrincfalva LC 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 Áron Jánosi couldn't finish the play. In the 17th minute Zakariás Somogyi 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.

Arnout Reekers was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Újlõrincfalva LC's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Szilárd Kiss in the 30th minute. A nice corner shot did that Szilárd Kiss got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Arnout Reekers quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. Kristóf Balázs came out of the goal in the 33rd minute to try and stop a shot by Netherlands's Gijsbert ter Kruimer. But to his dismay, Gijsbert ter Kruimer quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-1. The supporters of Újlõrincfalva LC booed when Netherlands was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 37 match minutes in a wonderful position. Lars Meesters didn't get a good kick on the ball.

Arnout Reekers took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Zsolt Gergely, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 54 minutes into the game, Wim Wilmes cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-2. Kristóf Balázs was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in.
