Stade de Magoo
Spectators: 7762 (Terracing: 5823, Seating: 1785, VIP seats: 154) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Isak Stålman started the match with the kick off. Markus Fågel showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Rigoberto Vergaray, who was totally free with the ball in the 5th minute. In the 11th minute, Isak Stålman had to leave the field with a concussion. Polly Magoo Juniors made a substitution. Jan-Erik Tunberg replaced Isak Stålman. The supporters of Polly Magoo Juniors booed when E➣ PINCHARRATA was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 13 match minutes in a wonderful position. Marcos Sandalio didn't get a good kick on the ball. Roy Johnsson could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 14th minute of the match, but Remigio Enetz made a huge save. In the 15th minute Benjamin Alonso shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Markus Fågel saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 39 minutes into the match, E➣ PINCHARRATA's goalkeeper Remigio Enetz had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Jan-Erik Tunberg. A throw-in in the 42nd minute of the game was made by Timoteo Valentine with Hipolito Txomin as target, who quickly passed the ball forward. When the match had gone on for 44 minutes, Gösta Bergman took a quick shot and it went in 1-0 without a chance for Remigio Enetz to make any attempt to save it. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Clemente Raymond to make the kick off. After some careless play in the E➣ PINCHARRATA defense, Jan-Erik Tunberg kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Remigio Enetz. The E➣ PINCHARRATA fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Remigio Enetz should have stopped the shot. 57 minutes into the match, Zhuang Wen Bang had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Remigio Enetz. E➣ PINCHARRATA's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Zhuang Wen Bang was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-0. If Gösta Bergman had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 59th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Markus Fågel showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Evaristo Foro in the 64th minute of the match. In the 68th minute of the game Timoteo Valentine made a throw-in which Alfonso Sal played forward. With a little luck, Polly Magoo Juniors's Markus Fågel got control of the ball when Evaristo Foro tried to sneak it across the goal line. After 72 played minutes E➣ PINCHARRATA got a freekick which was hit by Clemente Raymond. Polly Magoo Juniors's Kenny Pavey was substituted for Alf Bredberg. Eric Bertaux hit a great freekick 78 minutes into the match. Clemente Raymond charged in rather forcefully in the 80th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Clemente Raymond the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. In the 80th minute, Clemente Raymond hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 83 minutes had been played when some careless play by E➣ PINCHARRATA's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Roy Johnsson was slow to take the kick. During this time Polly Magoo Juniors's players had a chance to rest. 3-1 became the score in the 87th minute when Clemente Raymond elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. 90 minutes into the match, Clemente Raymond had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Markus Fågel. Polly Magoo Juniors's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Clemente Raymond was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-2.
