Spectators: 36 (Terracing: 28, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Sande Saševski made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Sreten Efremov in the 3rd minute of play. Zoran Lukič showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Barjet Antič, who was totally free with the ball in the 6th minute. 6 minutes into the game, Barjet Antič cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-0. Zoran Lukič was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. After a defensive mix-up in Furka Pobeda's zone, Barjet Antič stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Zoran Lukič came out of the goal and Barjet Antič tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After having played for 12 minutes, Menduh Naceski managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Berovo's supporters crossed their fingers, but Menduh Naceski was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. The supporters of Furka Pobeda booed when Berovo was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 15 match minutes in a wonderful position. Allmir Damčevski didn't get a good kick on the ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Besim Mojsiev in the 17th minute of play forced Berovo's goalkeeper Sande Saševski to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Menduh Naceski sent away a hard shot on goal in the 19th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Ruse Hasani's late challenge caught a Berovo's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Ruse Hasani helped the player get up and apologised. Furka Pobeda:s Zoran Lukič showed great skill when he stopped Nedelko Trajanov:s penalty. Menduh Naceski struck a weak shot in the 25th minute. Zoran Lukič didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Berovo. When Luka Trifunovski fell near the penalty area in the 32nd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Furka Pobeda's protests and gave Luka Trifunovski a yellow card for diving instead. In the 32nd match minute, Furka Pobeda was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Luka Trifunovski to maneuver through the defense. Besim Mojsiev recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 42nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If Sreten Efremov had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 46th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Besim Mojsiev stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. In the 51st minute, Naim Sumulikovski hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After a defensive mix-up in Berovo's zone, Besim Mojsiev stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Sande Saševski came out of the goal and Besim Mojsiev tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Ruse Hasani hit a great freekick 59 minutes into the match. In the 60th minute, Nedelko Trajanov sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and Furka Pobeda's Zoran Lukič didn't even have to move. Nedelko Trajanov was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 67th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. Furka Pobeda's Luka Trifunovski got his second yellow card of the match in the 68th minute. The referee ordered Luka Trifunovski off the ground. In the 68th match minute, Furka Pobeda was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Luka Trifunovski to maneuver through the defense. In the 70th minute Barjet Antič shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Zoran Lukič saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Sreten Efremov had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 74th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Barjet Antič in the 80th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Zoran Lukič saved Furka Pobeda from getting behind. Barjet Antič fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Zoran Lukič having to interfere. Menduh Naceski received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 89th minute. Zoran Lukič tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.
