Keld Paulsen made a fantastic save in the 3rd minute, when Anton Siöman sent off a good shot on target.

Johannes Biörnberg lost his temper 51 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card. After 50 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for FC Snipers! Chris Nygaard placed the ball on the penalty spot and got himself ready to shoot. Post out! After 55 minutes, Jörn Giöck mouthed his way into the referee's book.

After 75 minutes Denmark's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Göran Bocklund who took care of the corner kick.

After having played for 96 minutes, Göran Bocklund managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. FC Snipers's supporters crossed their fingers, but Göran Bocklund was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Denmark were disappointed that they only managed a draw, even though they felt themselves to be the better team.
