Spectators: 487 (Terracing: 366, Seating: 112, VIP seats: 9) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Salvador Ogazón made the kick off which started today's match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Donato Alvarez in the 6th minute of play forced Henley Utd's goalkeeper Mark Blixt to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The audience was convinced that Baldomiro Clementi's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Mark Blixt was relentless in the 13th minute of the game. When the match had gone on for 19 minutes, Baldomiro Clementi put it in 0-1 from a short distance just to the right of Mark Blixt. After 25 minutes of play, Bierunese's Baldomiro Clementi made it 0-2 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Mark Blixt was left in no man's land by his defense there! A sloppy throw-in by Per-Olof Stigsson in the 29th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by Bierunese's Bram Sandstra. Henley Utd's Mark Blixt played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Baldomiro Clementi in the 35th minute of play. The throw-in from Géza Fodor in the 36th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by Henley Utd's Anthon Paulin. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Baldomiro Clementi in the 39th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Mark Blixt saved Henley Utd from getting behind. After 40 minutes Henley Utd's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Bram Sandstra who took care of the corner kick. The corner led Bierunese's Bram Sandstra to fire away a dangerous shot which Mark Blixt despite some difficulties managed to get hold on the ball. Henley Utd's Mark Blixt played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Donato Alvarez in the 43rd minute of play.

Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-2 lead.

The wind increased when Baldomiro Clementi made the kick off in the second half. 60 minutes into the match, Henley Utd's goalkeeper Mark Blixt had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Baldomiro Clementi. Nicola van Bommel tried to clear up in front of the goal, but didn't succeed and rather the ball rolled into the own goal to the right of a despaired Mark Blixt. An unnecessary self made goal, 0-3 in the 62nd minute. When Devlet Umut fell near the penalty area in the 68th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Bierunese's protests and gave Devlet Umut a yellow card for diving instead. After 71 minutes, Per-Olof Stigsson mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Henley Utd and the Bierunese players grew even worse after the yellow card. Per-Olof Stigsson kicked well hit freekick during the 71st minute of the match. Donato Alvarez sent away a hard shot on goal in the 74th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Werner Kamps made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Salvador Ogazón in the 77th minute of play. The audience was convinced that Baldomiro Clementi's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Mark Blixt was relentless in the 79th minute of the game.

The Bierunese players were relieved to hear the final whistle blow to end the match. The away crowd was happy to see their team win after a very tight game.
