Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Rasmus Jaama took the kick off in the first half of the match. When Yyysmyae's Hannes Kaljundi in 3 game minutes managed to cut through with the ball in front of the goal, only having to shoot. Madis Liivamägi guarding the goal like a pit bull was extremely focused and managed to reach the ball just by the crossbar before it went in. Ats Tähismaa sent away a hard shot on goal in the 5th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 8 minutes of play, Kulitse's Rasmus Jaama made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.

After having played for 65 minutes, Ats Tähismaa managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.
