Sven Melander was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After 9 played minutes Wargön got a freekick which was hit by Wictor Pihlberg. The GreenSkar FC fans' excitement grew in the 11th match minute when GreenSkar FC's Ronny Lindqvist looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-2 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene.

Wargön's Sven Melander played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Magnus Johansson in the 64th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Roger Mager in the 67th minute of play forced GreenSkar FC's goalkeeper Bengt-Rune Alebom to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.
