Spectators: 7265 (Terracing: 5450, Seating: 1671, VIP seats: 144) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play.

Bernt Thedin fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 10th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Aron Lidberg having to interfere. In the 12th minute, Schollin's Edmund Eriksson ran free of his marker and smoothly shot the ball into the goal behind Aron Lidberg.

The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 22 minutes into the game, Casper Lindberg was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player.

Walter Vestberg showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Alexander Pilberg, who was totally free with the ball in the 42nd minute. When Bernt Thedin came up free with the goalie in the 44th minute, the Schollin 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 Bernt Thedin couldn't finish the play. Af the end of the first half the score was 2-1. The first half had gone as expected for the home team.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Bernt Thedin to make the kick off. In the 52nd minute, one of Schollin:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Schollin. Alfred Ekman shot the penalty kick by force right in the crossbar. No goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Alexander Pilberg in the 56th minute of play forced Schollin's goalkeeper Walter Vestberg to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Alexander Pilberg had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.
