Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play.

After a rather tough play, Ponikwa's Bartlomiej Bambas got a free kick in the 31st minute. After having played for 42 minutes, Wiktor Kaczorowski managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Ponikwa's supporters crossed their fingers, but Wiktor Kaczorowski was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Wiktor Kaczorowski sent away a hard shot on goal in the 43rd minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal.

In the 53rd minute the ball was on its way in behind Czepurka's goalkeeper Janusz Karbowski, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Wiktor Kaczorowski's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Janusz Karbowski firmly grabbed it by the left post. Wiktor Kaczorowski fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 78th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Janusz Karbowski having to interfere.

Wiktor Kaczorowski could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 84th minute of the match, but Janusz Karbowski made a huge save. When Konrad Rakowicz was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 85 minutes had been played. The supporters of Ponikwa booed when Czepurka was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 85 match minutes in a wonderful position. Konrad Rakowicz didn't get a good kick on the ball. With a little luck, Czepurka's Janusz Karbowski got control of the ball when Wiktor Kaczorowski tried to sneak it across the goal line. Olgierd Wasikowski recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 89th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.

Olgierd Wasikowski fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 91st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Janusz Karbowski having to interfere. Bartlomiej Bambas received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 94th minute.
