In the 36thth minute of the game Vlad Cazacu who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but ORANGE LAOMIJUCL's Adan Gerazan was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. If Vlad Cazacu had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 40th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Adan Gerazan showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Julian Jerrald, who was totally free with the ball in the 43rd minute. Adan Gerazan showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Vlad Cazacu in the 44th minute of the match. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-5 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Julian Jerrald was the one to do the kick off. When Vlad Cazacu came up free with the goalie in the 61st minute, the Sportlandia FC 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 Vlad Cazacu couldn't finish the play. 67 minutes into the match, Sportlandia FC's goal looked a bit too open when Denis Otsando came free, but Fabio Tassotti reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 68 minutes into the game, Vlad Cazacu recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Adan Gerazan. Vlad Cazacu showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 0-7. After 71 played minutes ORANGE LAOMIJUCL got a freekick which was hit by Lucas Erdiano. The supporters of Sportlandia FC booed when ORANGE LAOMIJUCL was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 72 match minutes in a wonderful position. Lucas Erdiano didn't get a good kick on the ball. Augusto Azeari struck a weak shot in the 73rd minute. Adan Gerazan didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Sportlandia FC. After having played for 75 minutes, Vlad Cazacu managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Sportlandia FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Vlad Cazacu was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After some careless play in the ORANGE LAOMIJUCL defense, Julian Jerrald kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Adan Gerazan. The ORANGE LAOMIJUCL fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Adan Gerazan should have stopped the shot. Augusto Azeari received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 87th minute. Adan Gerazan tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Julian Jerrald in the 89th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Adan Gerazan saved ORANGE LAOMIJUCL from getting behind.
