The crowd rose to their feet as Gregorio Montez kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Rodriguinho Sousa. That made the score 1-0 in the 5 minute of play. ATHLETICO PRaiano's Feng Ting Chong got a good chance for a goal in the 9th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Gregorio Montez had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. ATHLETICO PRaiano's Rodriguinho Sousa played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Gregorio Montez in the 12th minute of play.

Russówek's goalie ran out to the linesman to protest the call, but the linesman resolutely pointed his flag at the cornerflag. Robin van Persie ran over to the corner to take the kick. Robin van Persie made a great header on ATHLETICO PRaiano's corner, it was just that Russówek's Daniel Kieca managed to reach the ball for a save. A hard and well directed shot from Robin van Persie led 19 minutes into the game to a goal after the ball had bounced deceptively just in front of the goal. Russówek's Daniel Kieca became a little unsure and couldn't grip the ball before it was over the goalline. Thus it was 1-1. Gregorio Montez received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 22nd minute. Rodriguinho Sousa tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After 26 played minutes ATHLETICO PRaiano got a freekick which was hit by Robin van Persie. After having played for 34 minutes, Deilmison van Basten managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. ATHLETICO PRaiano's supporters crossed their fingers, but Deilmison van Basten was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Daniel Kieca showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Feng Ting Chong, who was totally free with the ball in the 36th minute. Deilmison van Basten fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 38th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Daniel Kieca having to interfere. Ryszard Skonieczny recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 44th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. The score stood at 1-1 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Deilmison van Basten stepped up to make the kick off in the second half.

Rodriguinho Sousa came out of the goal in the 65th minute to try and stop a shot by Russówek's Ryszard Skonieczny.

Russówek's Jakub Gdowski was substituted for Gregorio Montez. After 71 minutes of play, ATHLETICO PRaiano's Deilmison van Basten made it 2-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Daniel Kieca was left in no man's land by his defense there! 74 minutes into the game, Stanislaw Skrzypek was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Russówek's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave ATHLETICO PRaiano the free kick. Deilmison van Basten might have been able to make a better finish in the 78th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Daniel Kieca. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Deilmison van Basten ran back to his position shaking his head. Rodriguinho Sousa showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Zbigniew Zabrzeski, who was totally free with the ball in the 84th minute.
