Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Rolly Giro made the kick off and thus started the match. Engkos Karnawan charged in rather forcefully in the 3rd minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Engkos Karnawan the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. In the 3rd match minute, PSM Balisa was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Engkos Karnawan to maneuver through the defense. In the 6th minute, Thoyib Abidin left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The PSM Balisa fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-1. In the 10th minute Rolly Giro shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Zein Widianto saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 13 minutes into the match, Motabang FC's goal looked a bit too open when Engkos Karnawan came free, but Zein Widianto reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Rolly Giro received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 16th minute. Zein Widianto tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Thoyib Abidin's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Zein Widianto read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 19th minute of play. When Engkos Karnawan was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 23 minutes had been played. Winky Meringgi hit a great freekick 25 minutes into the match. After 26 played minutes, Motabang FC's Ellie Basuki shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Khusnul Gultom came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Motabang FC reached it. If Rolly Giro had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Motabang FC's Timotius Saptaji suffered a concussion in the 46th minute, after a hard challenge, and had to leave the field. After 46 played minutes PSM Balisa got a freekick which was hit by Sahala Sugiarto.

Thoyib Abidin might have been able to make a better finish in the 51st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Zein Widianto. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Thoyib Abidin ran back to his position shaking his head. 53 minutes into the match, Motabang FC's Sukma Pangestu sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Khusnul Gultom narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Thoyib Abidin recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 55th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. When Thoyib Abidin came up free with the goalie in the 60th minute, the PSM Balisa 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 Thoyib Abidin couldn't finish the play. After 64 minutes, Yance Surapradja mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Motabang FC and the PSM Balisa players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 64th match minute, Motabang FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Yance Surapradja to maneuver through the defense. Motabang FC's Zein Widianto proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 71st minute of the match, managed to save Motabang FC from getting a goal against them. Thoyib Abidin sent away a hard shot on goal in the 72nd minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal.
