Schmalentin
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Czeslaw Zalipski started the match with the kick off. In the 7th minute the ball was on its way in behind Solez's goalkeeper Dominik Skonieczny, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. With a little luck, Solez's Dominik Skonieczny got control of the ball when Izydor Lichorobiec tried to sneak it across the goal line. Sylwester Sochacki struck a weak shot in the 13th minute. Walery Gniech didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Solez. In the 16th minute, one of Schmalentin:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Schmalentin. Witomir Miecznikowski shot the penalty kick by force right in the crossbar. No goal. Sylwester Sochacki might have been able to make a better finish in the 24th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Walery Gniech. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Sylwester Sochacki ran back to his position shaking his head. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Boleslaw Kisielka during the 24th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. 25 minutes into the match, Solez's Witomir Miecznikowski broke free and took a long shot that unfortunately flew wide. A fine initiative that could have resulted in a goal. Czeslaw Zalipski sent away a hard shot on goal in the 27th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 30 played minutes, Solez's Mieszko Jazwiec shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Walery Gniech came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Solez reached it. After 31 minutes, Stasio Drozdowski mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Schmalentin and the Solez players grew even worse after the yellow card. Stasio Drozdowski kicked well hit freekick during the 31st minute of the match. In the 38th minute the ball was on its way in behind Schmalentin's goalkeeper Walery Gniech, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. In the 39th match minute, Schmalentin was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Boleslaw Kisielka to maneuver through the defense. When Tobiasz Loncki fell near the penalty area in the 44th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Schmalentin's protests and gave Tobiasz Loncki a yellow card for diving instead. After a rather tough play, Schmalentin's Tobiasz Loncki got a free kick in the 44th minute. The audience thought a goal was coming when Izydor Lichorobiec got free with Dominik Skonieczny in the 47th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Walery Gniech made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Czeslaw Zalipski in the 48th minute of play. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The wind increased when Tobiasz Loncki made the kick off in the second half. Witomir Miecznikowski charged in rather forcefully in the 60th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Witomir Miecznikowski the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. After a rather tough play, Solez's Witomir Miecznikowski got a free kick in the 60th minute. Izydor Lichorobiec fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 74th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Dominik Skonieczny having to interfere. Izydor Lichorobiec received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 78th minute. Dominik Skonieczny tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After a defensive mix-up in Schmalentin's zone, Czeslaw Zalipski stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Walery Gniech came out of the goal and Czeslaw Zalipski tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 83rd minute, Izydor Lichorobiec got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal.

Sylwester Sochacki ran back to his position shaking his head. Tobiasz Loncki received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 95th minute.

Both teams had looked equal from kick-off, and no-one was surprised when the match finally ended in a draw.
