Spectators: 42 (Terracing: 32, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Mel Önen got the match started through his kick off. Fodor Daniel made an important save on a dangerous shot by Mel Önen in the 8th minute. When Mel Önen came up free with the goalie in the 12th minute, the AC Collins 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 Mel Önen couldn't finish the play. 15 minutes into the match, AC Collins's goal looked a bit too open when Major Barna came free, but Donato Foddis reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 17th minute AC Collins were awarded a corner. Lamine Yamaleev went to the cornerflag to take it. 20 minutes into the match, AC Collins's Mel Önen sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Fodor Daniel narrowly saved just below the crossbar. In the 21st minute Major Barna shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Donato Foddis saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Alexander Di Persio kicked well hit freekick during the 25th minute of the match. Donato Foddis showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Major Barna, who was totally free with the ball in the 27th minute. Fodor Daniel showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Alexander Di Persio, who was totally free with the ball in the 29th minute. Hungary were awarded a corner in the 42th minute after AC Collins's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Antal Valentin took the corner. After a rather tough play, AC Collins's Mel Önen got a free kick in the 42nd minute. 43 minutes into the match, Hungary's Antal Valentin broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide. A fine initiative that could have resulted in a goal. 46 minutes into the match, Major Barna notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of AC Collins's Donato Foddis. Donato Foddis was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Antal Valentin to make the kick off. An unexpectedly hard shot by Mel Önen in the 57th minute of play forced Hungary's goalkeeper Fodor Daniel to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Mel Önen had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Zacarias Theodore kicked well hit freekick during the 67th minute of the match. In the 69th minute Takacs Tibor shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Donato Foddis saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Antal Valentin in the 74th play minute got the chance to kick a hard shot on goal from short distance neither the defense or Donato Foddis kept up with the ball and suddenly the score was 0-2 when the ball slipped into goal inside the left pole. In the 79th 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. The audience thought a goal was coming when Antal Valentin got free with Donato Foddis in the 81st minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. After some fancy dribbling in the 83rd minute, Antal Valentin managed to get in a good position for a shot. Hungary's supporters rose to their feet, but Antal Valentin was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Donato Foddis breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Major Barna recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 94th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. When the match was over Hungary could go home with a victory in their luggage, having controlled the game far better than AC Collins throughout the match.
