Dimcho Bobchev showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from João Keane in the 6th minute of the match. 6 minutes into the match, João Keane had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Dimcho Bobchev. FC Kickerz's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that João Keane was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. Patricio Lloret recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 11th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 12 minutes into the match, GOMEZ F.C.'s goal looked a bit too open when Gu Bang Jun came free, but Ismael Momparte reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After 13 minutes, Evert Beckström mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the FC Kickerz and the GOMEZ F.C. players grew even worse after the yellow card.

Patricio Lloret might have been able to make a better finish in the 31st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Dimcho Bobchev. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Patricio Lloret ran back to his position shaking his head. Kristoffer Sundström's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Ismael Momparte read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 32nd minute of play. Ismael Momparte took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Gu Bang Jun, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.

In the 83rd minute Kristoffer Sundström shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Ismael Momparte saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Kristoffer Sundström had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 85th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.
