The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Heiko Drengenburg struck a weak shot in the 10th minute. Carsten-Alexander Metzler didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for SV Hall. After a defensive mix-up in DINAMO 48's zone, Jan-Philipp Schlacher stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Carsten-Alexander Metzler came out of the goal and Jan-Philipp Schlacher tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 17th minute, Hermann Kromp got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Sebastian Meckenstock had several of the SV Hall's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 18 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 1-0 score and a disappointed Andi Kramp as he didn't even see the shot coming. Andi Kramp showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Sebastian Meckenstock in the 23rd minute of the match. Carsten-Alexander Metzler came out of the goal in the 27th minute to try and stop a shot by SV Hall's Heiko Drengenburg.

Carsten-Alexander Metzler made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Heiko Drengenburg in the 38th minute of play. SV Hall's Jan-Philipp Schlacher got a good chance for a goal in the 39th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Hermann Kromp recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 43rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.

Sebastian Meckenstock ran back to his position shaking his head. Andi Kramp took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Sebastian Meckenstock, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.

After 47 minutes, Denis Tillemann mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the SV Hall and the DINAMO 48 players grew even worse after the yellow card. A collision led to SV Hall getting a freekick after 48 minutes play. Denis Tillemann hit a great ball. After the first half the score was level.

The referee ignored SV Hall's protests and gave Jan-Philipp Schlacher a yellow card for diving instead. Benjamin Scheider made a great header on DINAMO 48's corner, it was just that SV Hall's Andi Kramp managed to reach the ball for a save.
