Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Edvard Reiljan made the kick off which started today's match. REAL MADRID's Vello Salmistu played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Edvard Reiljan in the 4th minute of play. Vello Salmistu took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Kevin Ilus, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 7th minute, Fridrich Albi reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Reynaldo Guerra. The goal made the score 1-0. Väimela's attentive Eiko Kalde managed to snatch the ball when Ivo Niidu made a throw-in in the 11th minute of the game. Reynaldo Guerra made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Fridrich Albi in the 14th minute of play. If Kevin Ilus had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 16th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After 19 minutes of play, Väimela's Edvard Reiljan made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Vello Salmistu was left in no man's land by his defense there! The crowd rose to their feet as REAL MADRID's Fridrich Albi slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Reynaldo Guerra. That made the score 2-1 after 23 minutes of play. Väimela's Edvard Reiljan got a good chance for a goal in the 26th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. 28 minutes into the game, Jass Kiviloo cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 2-2. Vello Salmistu was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. In the 31st match minute, Väimela was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Paul Toomes to maneuver through the defense. Fridrich Albi recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 32nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Virgo Veeru received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 34th minute. Reynaldo Guerra tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Edvard Reiljan hit a great freekick 36 minutes into the match. Vello Salmistu didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Kevin Ilus went, in the 38th minute, to the upper right corner, 2-3 was the resulting score. 46 minutes into the match, REAL MADRID's goal looked a bit too open when Kevin Ilus came free, but Vello Salmistu reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 2-3 lead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Fridrich Albi was the one to do the kick off. In the 53rd minute, Edvard Reiljan reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Vello Salmistu. The goal made the score 2-4. Kevin Ilus scored 2-5 in the 58th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Vello Salmistu, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. If Alvar Kaar had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 64th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 69th minute, Alvar Kaar ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Reynaldo Guerra was frozen by the shot and now it was 3-5. Väimela made a substitution. Osvald Olt replaced Eiko Kalde. Vello Salmistu took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Osvald Olt, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Ivo Niidu made in the 80th minute of the game a throw-in that took a bad bounce and was taken care of by Väimela's Osvald Olt. Kevin Ilus took the ball and in the 83 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Vello Salmistu. Vello Salmistu dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 3-6. A collision led to Väimela getting a freekick after 87 minutes play. Kuno Varju hit a great ball. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Kuno Varju during the 90th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. In the 90th minute, Kuno Varju hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 94 minutes into the match, REAL MADRID's goal looked a bit too open when Kuno Varju came free, but Vello Salmistu reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Väimela played a much better game than REAL MADRID and deserved their victory. The REAL MADRID players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
