Spectators: 44 (Terracing: 34, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) Frank Sachs made the kick off and thus started the match. Tommy Kahn made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Jervis Tresise in the 9th minute of play. Jervis Tresise succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 1-0 in the 9th playminute. After some fancy dribbling in the 11th minute, Jervis Tresise managed to get in a good position for a shot. Stratton FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Jervis Tresise was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Tommy Kahn breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 17 minutes into the match, Germany's goal looked a bit too open when Jervis Tresise came free, but Tommy Kahn reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Frank Sachs in the 18th minute of play forced Stratton FC's goalkeeper Lawrance See to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 34th minute Alessandro Sacchi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Tommy Kahn saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Albin Holweck had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 36th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. With a little luck, Germany's Tommy Kahn got control of the ball when Alessandro Sacchi tried to sneak it across the goal line. Malte Schiele hit a great freekick 48 minutes into the match.

In the 53rd minute Alessandro Sacchi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Tommy Kahn saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.
