Spectators: 7293 (Terracing: 5472, Seating: 1677, VIP seats: 144) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play.

After having played for 6 minutes, Zula Zurawski managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Simuny's supporters crossed their fingers, but Zula Zurawski was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Iwan Pruss's late challenge caught a Rodzynki's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card.
