Karampuang
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Yuli Dinanto started the match with the kick off. Erik Gustav kicked well hit freekick during the 28th minute of the match. ¥¥ Higa Viola ¥¥'s defense didn't have a chance, in the 32nd minute, when Koko Leonard scored to the left of an out of position Cornelius Wirahadikusumah, making the score, 1-0. After 34 played minutes Karampuang got a freekick which was hit by Aji Karisma. If Yayan Putro had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 40th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Tiro Durahman might have been able to make a better finish in the 46th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Muchtar Burhanuddin. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Tiro Durahman ran back to his position shaking his head. 48 minutes into the match, Karampuang's goal looked a bit too open when Tiro Durahman came free, but Muchtar Burhanuddin reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

When Tiro Durahman came up free with the goalie in the 62nd minute, the ¥¥ Higa Viola ¥¥ 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 Tiro Durahman couldn't finish the play. Fuad Manurung hit a great freekick 73 minutes into the match. Kris Fachrudin's late challenge caught a ¥¥ Higa Viola ¥¥'s player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain.

After 79 minutes of play, ¥¥ Higa Viola ¥¥'s Tiro Durahman made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.
