Deng Chang Xu received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 15th minute. Vello Landi tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 17th match minute, OxentePaisa Salcity was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Júlio Paraibano to maneuver through the defense. In the 21st minute, Cléber Ramos hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Júlio Paraibano hit a great freekick 25 minutes into the match. Luiz Eduardo Xavier came free with the goalkeeper in the 28th minute of the match, and shot straight on target. The shot was a little too simple and Aquiles Senio could save by the left post. The throw-in from Cléber Ramos in the 29th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by Emaηski F.C Reborη's James Butler. After some careless play in the OxentePaisa Salcity defense, Deng Chang Xu kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Vello Landi. The OxentePaisa Salcity fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Vello Landi should have stopped the shot. 郑霖钢, 34 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. Thanks to some nice moves Luiz Eduardo Xavier could shoot a difficult shot in the 40th minute, which Aquiles Senio however easily saved by the left post.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Deng Chang Xu was the one to do the kick off. Deng Chang Xu's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Vello Landi read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 51st minute of play. If Gaz Abbott had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 52nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 53 played minutes Emaηski F.C Reborη got a freekick which was hit by Budisav Mićunović. An unexpectedly hard shot by Deng Chang Xu in the 57th minute of play forced OxentePaisa Salcity's goalkeeper Vello Landi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Vello Landi showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Deng Chang Xu, who was totally free with the ball in the 58th minute. Emaηski F.C Reborη's James Butler managed, thanks to a brazen rush, stole the ball on a throw-in made by Cléber Ramos in the 62 minute of the game. Deng Chang Xu blasted a shot towards the goal in the 63rd minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Vello Landi having to make a save. In the 63rd minute Deng Chang Xu shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Vello Landi saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Gaz Abbott had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 65th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Emaηski F.C Reborη made a substitution.

Emaηski F.C Reborη's Tanek Sniegowski was substituted for Deng Chang Xu.
