Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) An unexpectedly hard shot by Artan Berišaj in the 4th minute of play forced Oxford University's goalkeeper Gavril Dukovski to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 5th minute, Artan Berišaj reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of Gavril Dukovski. The goal made the score 1-0. A hard shot 11 in the game by Dimitar Blaku from a close distance when the talented Gavril Dukovski managed to make a qualified save. Oxford University's players were relieved. Mitan Bardulla scored 1-1 in the 17th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Srečko Urgovski, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. If Dimitar Blaku had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 23rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Ilija Ristanoski fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 25th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Srečko Urgovski having to interfere. 37 minutes into the match, Ilija Ristanoski had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Srečko Urgovski. Bosilovo Napredok's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Ilija Ristanoski was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-2. Dimitar Blaku recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 43rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If Mitan Bardulla had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After the first half Oxford University were leading 1-2. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The wind increased when Ilija Ristanoski made the kick off in the second half. Mitan Bardulla could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 59th minute of the match, but Srečko Urgovski made a huge save. After some careless play in the Oxford University defense, Artan Berišaj kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Gavril Dukovski. The Oxford University fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Gavril Dukovski should have stopped the shot. After 74 minutes, Pandil Danevski mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Bosilovo Napredok and the Oxford University players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 75th match minute, Bosilovo Napredok was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Pandil Danevski to maneuver through the defense. 2-3 became the score in the 77th minute when Ilija Ristanoski elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. After a rather tough play, Oxford University's Emilijano Dojčinovski got a free kick in the 96th minute. The referee blew the final whistle, and the away crowd roared, having watched Oxford University eke out a victory against a very well matched opponent.
