Spectators: 7533 (Terracing: 5651, Seating: 1732, VIP seats: 150) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Josef Mellin started the match with the kick off. 5 minutes into the game, Or I was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Honung's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Villa Mitre the free kick. In the 5th minute, Or I hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Roman Montez made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Emil Unesson in the 8th minute of play. Roman Montez came out of the goal in the 9th minute to try and stop a shot by Honung's Emil Unesson. But to his dismay, Emil Unesson quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. Roman Montez took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Lars Kråk, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 12 minutes, Leandro Jenaro mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Villa Mitre and the Honung players grew even worse after the yellow card. Leandro Jenaro hit a great freekick 12 minutes into the match. Magnus Pålsson sent away a hard shot on goal in the 14th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 16 minutes into the match, Josef Mellin had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Roman Montez. Villa Mitre's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Josef Mellin was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-2. In the 28th minute Lars Kråk shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Roman Montez saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 29th minute, Astor Shepherd managed to get in a good position for a shot. Villa Mitre's supporters rose to their feet, but Astor Shepherd was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Three De Four breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 32 minutes into the game, Josef Mellin cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-4. Roman Montez was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. When Lars Kråk came up free with the goalie in the 35th minute, the Honung fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Lars Kråk couldn't finish the play. After 36 played minutes Villa Mitre got a freekick which was hit by Hipolito Corderro. After 40 played minutes Honung got a freekick which was hit by Co I. Villa Mitre's Astor Shepherd managed to work through Honung's defense and was going for an easy goal, but he hit the shot with his toe and the ball flew outside the goal. Astor Shepherd dejectedly held out his arms as if to ask why the ball hadn't gone in. When Jan Rein Cremona Barbaro fell near the penalty area in the 45th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Honung's protests and gave Jan Rein Cremona Barbaro a yellow card for diving instead. The supporters of Villa Mitre booed when Honung was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 45 match minutes in a wonderful position. Jan Rein Cremona Barbaro didn't get a good kick on the ball.

The wind increased when Astor Shepherd made the kick off in the second half. Lars Kråk succeeded to score despite a near miss that spronge from right pole into the goal to 1-5 in the 55th playminute. The audience thought a goal was coming when Lars Kråk got free with Roman Montez in the 58th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. When Jan Rein Cremona Barbaro was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 59 minutes had been played. After 59 played minutes Honung got a freekick which was hit by Jan Rein Cremona Barbaro. When Magnus Pålsson got free in front of the goal in the 64th minute he wasn't very focused and chipped the ball just over the goal. Roman Montez was delighted since he was out of position and the ball would have got in if it had gone under the crossbar. The crowd rose to their feet as Honung's Lars Kråk slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Roman Montez. That made the score 1-6 after 65 minutes of play. Emil Unesson could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 69th minute of the match, but Roman Montez made a huge save. If Magnus Pålsson had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 71st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 80th minute, Emil Unesson reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Roman Montez. The goal made the score 1-7. 83 minutes into the match, Villa Mitre's goal looked a bit too open when Magnus Pålsson came free, but Roman Montez reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 88th minute Lars Kråk shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Roman Montez saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 89th minute, Magnus Pålsson ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Roman Montez was frozen by the shot and now it was 1-8. Honung's players went to the stands to thank the travelling support. The fan's backing had helped spurr the team on to a fine performance that won them the match.
