Tomas Illescas fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 3rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Leon Brack having to interfere. Venezuela's Jonathan Ferrant played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Junior Lamela in the 5th minute of play. 6 minutes into the match, Venezuela's goalkeeper Jonathan Ferrant had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Renatinho Lago.

After a rather tough play, Venezuela's Guillermo Mariano got a free kick in the 9th minute. When Tomas Illescas came up free with the goalie in the 16th minute, the Venezuela fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Tomas Illescas couldn't finish the play. If Junior Lamela had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 17th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 19 minutes into the match, Venezuela's goal looked a bit too open when Junior Lamela came free, but Jonathan Ferrant reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Tomas Illescas's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Leon Brack read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 24th minute of play. The corner ended in Tomas Illescas almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but Szczakersi RACIBUR's Leon Brack did a great save. If Renatinho Lago had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 36th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

A throw-in in the 42nd minute of the game was made by Mikolaj Kosmatka with Renatinho Lago as target, who quickly passed the ball forward. Junior Lamela struck a weak shot in the 46th minute. Jonathan Ferrant didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Szczakersi RACIBUR.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Renatinho Lago to make the kick off. Tomas Illescas recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 58th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Tomas Illescas sent away a hard shot on goal in the 61st minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal.

Leon Brack made a fantastic save in the 81st minute, when Tomas Illescas sent off a good shot on target. In the 83rd minute D.J. 董卓 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jonathan Ferrant saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When the match had gone on for 84 minutes, Patricio Costa took a quick shot and it went in 3-2 without a chance for Leon Brack to make any attempt to save it. After having played for 88 minutes, Renatinho Lago managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Szczakersi RACIBUR's supporters crossed their fingers, but Renatinho Lago was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 91 minutes into the match, Tomas Illescas had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Leon Brack. Szczakersi RACIBUR's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Tomas Illescas was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-3. Venezuela succeeded in salvaging a draw, even though Szczakersi RACIBUR had controlled the match.
