Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Edgard Bermudo started the match with the kick off. In the 3rd minute Nestor Baraquiel shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Adrian Springfält saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Douglas Lööf in the 5th minute of play forced SJÖARED's goalkeeper Adrian Springfält to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Emanuele Fioriti showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Sture Göransson, who was totally free with the ball in the 16th minute. Emanuele Fioriti made a fantastic save in the 19th minute, when Sture Göransson sent off a good shot on target. With a little luck, FK Ekebo's Emanuele Fioriti got control of the ball when Vilhelm Lidman tried to sneak it across the goal line. Adrian Springfält showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Edgard Bermudo, who was totally free with the ball in the 31st minute. If Helge Gustafsson had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Gunnar Hellström kicked well hit freekick during the 39th minute of the match. After 44 played minutes SJÖARED got a freekick which was hit by Roger Bålström. When Elias Häger fell near the penalty area in the 46th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored FK Ekebo's protests and gave Elias Häger a yellow card for diving instead. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Sture Göransson to make the kick off. Emanuele Fioriti took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Vilhelm Lidman, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Edgard Bermudo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 55th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Adrian Springfält having to interfere. Helge Gustafsson struck a weak shot in the 61st minute. Emanuele Fioriti didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for SJÖARED. Vilhelm Lidman kicked well hit freekick during the 63rd minute of the match. If Sture Göransson had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 66th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. SJÖARED's Isak Qvarnström was substituted for Vilhelm Lidman. SJÖARED's Urban Rudberg was substituted for Sture Göransson. In the 75th minute, Urban Rudberg hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. FK Ekebo's Emanuele Fioriti played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Urban Rudberg in the 77th minute of play. Roger Bålström was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 80th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. Emanuele Fioriti showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Urban Rudberg, who was totally free with the ball in the 85th minute. After some careless play in the FK Ekebo defense, Helge Gustafsson kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Emanuele Fioriti. The FK Ekebo fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Emanuele Fioriti should have stopped the shot. Emanuele Fioriti made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Helge Gustafsson in the 94th minute of play. Edgard Bermudo could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 95th minute of the match, but Adrian Springfält made a huge save.
