Spectators: 152 (Terracing: 114, Seating: 35, VIP seats: 3) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Joshua Cumming made the kick off which started today's match. After 3 minutes of play, Dogo Argentino's Fang Kang Guang made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Vello Landi was left in no man's land by his defense there! The audience thought a goal was coming when Sava Chuchev got free with Daniel Raebert in the 5th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. A sloppy throw-in by Christian Luzea in the 7th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by OxentePaisa Salcity's Diogo Queirós. Daniel Raebert made an important save on a dangerous shot by Sava Chuchev in the 12th minute. 14 minutes into the game, Fang Kang Guang cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-2. Vello Landi was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. 17 minutes into the match, OxentePaisa Salcity's goal looked a bit too open when Fang Kang Guang came free, but Vello Landi reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 18th minute of the match Dogo Argentino got a corner. OxentePaisa Salcity's goalie ran out to the linesman to protest the call, but the linesman resolutely pointed his flag at the cornerflag. Egor Nikiforov ran over to the corner to take the kick. Ivan Pillud was in a good position and managed to take a shot, but he missed just to the outside of the post. Daniel Raebert made a fantastic save in the 21st minute, when Sava Chuchev sent off a good shot on target. Julian Palban might have been able to make a better finish in the 22nd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Vello Landi. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Julian Palban ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 26th minute, Fang Kang Guang ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Vello Landi was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-3. Dogo Argentino's Daniel Raebert proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 36th minute of the match, managed to save Dogo Argentino from getting a goal against them. Dogo Argentino's You Fei was substituted for Ivan Pillud. Dogo Argentino's Fabricio Eguerdi was substituted for Julian Palban.

Vello Landi showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from You Fei, who was totally free with the ball in the 65th minute. You Fei could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 69th minute of the match, but Vello Landi made a huge save. OxentePaisa Salcity's Adrianinho Maciel was substituted for Şenol Yildıran. Dogo Argentino's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Egor Nikiforov in the 72nd minute. The corner led Dogo Argentino's Egor Nikiforov to fire away a dangerous shot which Vello Landi despite some difficulties managed to get hold on the ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Emanuele Passalacqua in the 75th minute of play forced OxentePaisa Salcity's goalkeeper Vello Landi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. William Sá's late challenge caught a Dogo Argentino's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. William Sá helped the player get up and apologised. William Sá hit a great freekick 83 minutes into the match. OxentePaisa Salcity's Reşat Orgunalp was substituted for Joshua Cumming. In the 84th minute, William Sá hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.

Daniel Raebert came out of the goal in the 97th minute to try and stop a shot by OxentePaisa Salcity's Manfred Skarkman. But to his dismay, Manfred Skarkman quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 4-3. Dogo Argentino's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
