The Fc Samba fans' excitement grew in the 17th match minute when Fc Samba's Josef Askstedt looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 1-1 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene.

After 34 played minutes, Fc Samba's Kalle Boström shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Göran Rönn 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 Fc Samba reached it. After some fancy dribbling in the 40th minute, Knut Holmgren managed to get in a good position for a shot. Fc Samba's supporters rose to their feet, but Knut Holmgren was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Göran Rönn breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Josef Askstedt stepped up to make the kick off in the second half.

In the 57th match minute, Månsarp was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Svante Berglund to maneuver through the defense.

After a defensive mix-up in Fc Samba's zone, Malcolm Lindqvist stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Olof Wall came out of the goal and Malcolm Lindqvist tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. If Patrik Snell had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 66th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.
