Spectators: 47 (Terracing: 36, Seating: 11, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Jonas Herz kicked off to start the match. The supporters of Zelg FC booed when Scarlet Speedster was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 5 match minutes in a wonderful position. Tomas Wallin didn't get a good kick on the ball. Raigo Vananurm charged in rather forcefully in the 6th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Raigo Vananurm the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After 6 played minutes Scarlet Speedster got a freekick which was hit by Raigo Vananurm. After some careless play in the Zelg FC defense, Fausto Mendonça kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Sepp Mainville. The Zelg FC fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Sepp Mainville should have stopped the shot. Fausto Mendonça blasted a shot towards the goal in the 14th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Sepp Mainville having to make a save. Zelg FC's Sepp Mainville played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Fausto Mendonça in the 14th minute of play. 16 minutes into the game, Zelg FC's Jonas Herz nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot.

A very good chance. Fausto Mendonça scored 1-3 in the 27th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Sepp Mainville, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 30 minutes into the match, Scarlet Speedster's Fausto Mendonça sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Sepp Mainville narrowly saved just below the crossbar. 32 minutes into the game, Jan Giacomozzi was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Zelg FC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Scarlet Speedster the free kick. The supporters of Scarlet Speedster booed when Zelg FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 32 match minutes in a wonderful position. Jan Giacomozzi didn't get a good kick on the ball.

After a rather tough play, Zelg FC's Stefano Hubli got a free kick in the 50th minute. Fausto Mendonça recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 51st minute.

Scarlet Speedster's Jens-Ove Eriksson quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Serge Tomasini, made in the 64th minute of the game. 65 minutes into the match, Zelg FC's goal looked a bit too open when Ekialde Nadal came free, but Sepp Mainville reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

But to his dismay, Jonas Herz quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-5.

After having played for 87 minutes, Ekialde Nadal managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

Samuel Quirino made in the 89th minute of the game a sloppy throw-in which Váldson Bittencourt however managed to control. 91 minutes had been played when some careless play by Zelg FC's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner.
