Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Tadore FC's Ading Bayauw started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. After some fancy dribbling in the 5th minute, Ading Bayauw managed to get in a good position for a shot. Tadore FC's supporters rose to their feet, but Ading Bayauw was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Abdika Wirahadikusumah breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Yosef Daryana might have been able to make a better finish in the 9th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Khusnul Wijaya. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Yosef Daryana ran back to his position shaking his head. Bayu Sumarwoto sent away a hard shot on goal in the 12th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After having played for 14 minutes, Hastomo Akmal managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Tadore FC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Hastomo Akmal was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 16th match minute, Sasya was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Bayu Sumarwoto to maneuver through the defense. Hastomo Akmal who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 17thth minute tested the skills of Abdika Wirahadikusumah when he managed to save the team from getting behind. Bayu Sumarwoto sent away a hard shot on goal in the 24th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Tadore FC's Khusnul Wijaya played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Bayu Sumarwoto in the 35th minute of play. Yosef Daryana received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 36th minute. Khusnul Wijaya tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Bayu Sumarwoto had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 38th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. A collision led to Sasya getting a freekick after 45 minutes play. Bayu Sumarwoto hit a great ball. After a rather tough play, Sasya's Bayu Sumarwoto got a free kick in the 47th minute.

The wind increased when Bayu Sumarwoto made the kick off in the second half. Zidan Lisandri charged in rather forcefully in the 52nd minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Zidan Lisandri the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. The supporters of Tadore FC booed when Sasya was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 52 match minutes in a wonderful position. Zidan Lisandri didn't get a good kick on the ball. Tadore FC's Hastomo Akmal managed to work through Sasya's defense and was going for an easy goal, but he hit the shot with his toe and the ball flew outside the goal. Hastomo Akmal dejectedly held out his arms as if to ask why the ball hadn't gone in. Ading Bayauw fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 57th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Abdika Wirahadikusumah having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Ading Bayauw in the 61st minute of play forced Sasya's goalkeeper Abdika Wirahadikusumah to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 64 minutes into the game, Bayu Sumarwoto recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Khusnul Wijaya. Bayu Sumarwoto showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 0-1. When Ading Bayauw came up free with the goalie in the 69th minute, the Tadore FC 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 Ading Bayauw couldn't finish the play. If Hastomo Akmal had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 72nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Kelik Pattinasarani's late challenge caught a Sasya's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Kelik Pattinasarani helped the player get up and apologised. In the 76th match minute, Tadore FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Kelik Pattinasarani to maneuver through the defense. An unexpectedly hard shot by Ading Bayauw in the 88th minute of play forced Sasya's goalkeeper Abdika Wirahadikusumah to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The audience was convinced that Hastomo Akmal's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Abdika Wirahadikusumah was relentless in the 93rd minute of the game. Soleh Yarangga kicked well hit freekick during the 96th minute of the match. Martin Hatala missed a clear chance of a goal when in the 98 minute of the game fired away a shot, but unfortunally the ball went out to the Abdika Wirahadikusumah right hand side. The Sasya supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Sasya would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
