Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Zachary Molski started the match with the kick off. A collision led to Venezuela getting a freekick after 4 minutes play. Jose Correa hit a great ball. In the 6th minute of the match Eddi Czarny shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Jonathan Ferrant showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. After a defensive mix-up in ATLAS Mysłowice's zone, Tomas Illescas stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Radowit Fleszar came out of the goal and Tomas Illescas tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Jonathan Ferrant showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Szczepan Klocko, who was totally free with the ball in the 10th minute. Jonathan Ferrant was a little too slow when Zachary Molski got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 12th minute. The score was now 1-0. Radowit Fleszar stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Tomas Illescas's shot from short distance in the 23rd minute. When Tomas Illescas came up free with the goalie in the 26th 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 Szczepan Klocko had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 30th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. The audience thought a goal was coming when Ryszard Muka got free with Jonathan Ferrant in the 34th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. In the 39th minute, Stanislaw Koperski hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Radowit Fleszar stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Tomas Illescas's shot from short distance in the 41st minute. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-0 at half-time.

ATLAS Mysłowice's Radowit Fleszar played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Tomas Illescas in the 51st minute of play. If Tomas Illescas had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 54th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After some careless play in the Venezuela defense, Szczepan Klocko kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Jonathan Ferrant. The Venezuela fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Jonathan Ferrant should have stopped the shot. Tomas Illescas blasted a shot towards the goal in the 62nd minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Radowit Fleszar having to make a save. After a rather tough play, ATLAS Mysłowice's Stanislaw Koperski got a free kick in the 63rd minute. When ATLAS Mysłowice's Tomasz Hajder in the 70th minute got a chance for a shot 70th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Venezuela's goalie prevented a goal. Tomas Illescas might have been able to make a better finish in the 72nd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Radowit Fleszar. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Tomas Illescas ran back to his position shaking his head. Jonathan Ferrant took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Zachary Molski, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 78th minute Tomas Illescas shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Radowit Fleszar saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Venezuela's Tomas Illescas was first on the ball when the corner was shot and he dangerously headed the ball towards goal, but Radowit Fleszar in the goal jumped up to prevent it from getting in. The audience was convinced that Tomas Illescas's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Radowit Fleszar was relentless in the 86th minute of the game. In the 87th minute, Patricio Costa got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. After a rather tough play, ATLAS Mysłowice's Eddi Czarny got a free kick in the 88th minute. Szczepan Klocko scored 4-0 in the 93rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Jonathan Ferrant, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. The ATLAS Mysłowice support was delighted with a win in a match that could easily have ended differently.
