Spectators: 7443 (Terracing: 5583, Seating: 1712, VIP seats: 148) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Kuddusî Akgül took the kick off in the first half of the match. Sven-Oskar Strömberg stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Akil Mertoğul's shot from short distance in the 3rd minute. After 12 played minutes Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤ got a freekick which was hit by Cauan Sena. An unexpectedly hard shot by Karl Mårtensson in the 14th minute of play forced Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s goalkeeper Üzeyir Ülker to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Ramon-Angel Mkhitaryan's late challenge caught a Jörlanda's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Ramon-Angel Mkhitaryan helped the player get up and apologised. In the 15th minute, Ramon-Angel Mkhitaryan hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 19th minute, Emil Berggren hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. A collision led to Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤ getting a freekick after 24 minutes play. Cauan Sena hit a great ball. After some fancy dribbling in the 28th minute, Kuddusî Akgül managed to get in a good position for a shot. Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s supporters rose to their feet, but Kuddusî Akgül was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Sven-Oskar Strömberg breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Sven-Oskar Strömberg came out of the goal in the 29th minute to try and stop a shot by Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s Kuddusî Akgül. But to his dismay, Kuddusî Akgül quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1.

The supporters of Jörlanda booed when Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤ was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 34 match minutes in a wonderful position. Taco Kristoffers didn't get a good kick on the ball.

In the 38th minute Kuddusî Akgül shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Sven-Oskar Strömberg saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 39 minutes of play Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤'s Ramon-Angel Mkhitaryan was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. A collision led to Tʂ MҽყԃαɳGüƈü Ⓢ③⑤ getting a freekick after 40 minutes play. Ramon-Angel Mkhitaryan hit a great ball. Kuddusî Akgül blasted a shot towards the goal in the 46th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Sven-Oskar Strömberg having to make a save. If Akil Mertoğul had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 46th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Karl Mårtensson made a kick off.
