That made the score 1-2 in the 27 minute of play. In the 35th minute the ball was on its way in behind Brandhorst's goalkeeper Heinrich Linz, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar.

Heinrich Linz showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Karl Bunischew, who was totally free with the ball in the 36th minute. Lemgrabe FSV's Michael Brand played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Horst-Peter Tannhof in the 47th minute of play.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Karl Bunischew to strike the kick off in the second half. After 60 minutes, Jens-Uwe Bartz mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Lemgrabe FSV and the Brandhorst players grew even worse after the yellow card. Jan-Niclas von Berg charged in rather forcefully in the 68th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Jan-Niclas von Berg the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play.
