With a couple of smart ball manuevers Melker Ahlkvist in the 4th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Per-Oskar Lövskog saved Lit IFK from getting behind. Melker Ahlkvist's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Per-Oskar Lövskog read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 6th minute of play. When the match clock showed 10 minutes, the score became 0-1 when Melker Ahlkvist sped through Lit IFK's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Per-Oskar Lövskog. In the 14th minute, Melker Ahlkvist hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After having played for 15 minutes, Lars-Erik Holm managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Lit IFK's supporters crossed their fingers, but Lars-Erik Holm was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Eddie Ek hit a great freekick 18 minutes into the match. Tobias Magnusson charged in rather forcefully in the 26th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Tobias Magnusson the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. A collision led to Skillinge IFK getting a freekick after 26 minutes play. Tobias Magnusson hit a great ball. After some careless play in the Lit IFK defense, Melker Ahlkvist kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Per-Oskar Lövskog. The Lit IFK fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Per-Oskar Lövskog should have stopped the shot. If Thor Ödmann had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 36th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a rather tough play, Skillinge IFK's Bengt Haström got a free kick in the 42nd minute. 44 minutes in the game Patrik Hellgren got a great opportunity which he missed by shooting outside the goal. Karl-Axel Lindgren showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Nils-Erik Gummeson, who was totally free with the ball in the 47th minute.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Björn Carlsson was the one to do the kick off. When Björn Carlsson came up free with the goalie in the 52nd minute, the Lit IFK fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Björn Carlsson couldn't finish the play. In the 54th minute Lars-Erik Holm shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Karl-Axel Lindgren saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Ove Skytt kicked well hit freekick during the 57th minute of the match. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Lars-Erik Holm in the 59th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Karl-Axel Lindgren saved Skillinge IFK from getting behind. When the match clock showed 63 minutes, the score became 1-3 when Thor Ödmann sped through Lit IFK's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Per-Oskar Lövskog. Lit IFK's Per-Oskar Lövskog played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Melker Ahlkvist in the 68th minute of play. Per-Oskar Lövskog made an important save on a dangerous shot by Thor Ödmann in the 72nd minute. An unexpectedly hard shot by Björn Carlsson in the 77th minute of play forced Skillinge IFK's goalkeeper Karl-Axel Lindgren to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 85th minute, Thor Ödmann 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. After 89 played minutes Lit IFK got a freekick which was hit by Nils-Erik Gummeson. With a little luck, Lit IFK's Per-Oskar Lövskog got control of the ball when Thor Ödmann tried to sneak it across the goal line. Thanks to some nice moves Thor Ödmann could shoot a difficult shot in the 95th minute, which Per-Oskar Lövskog however easily saved by the left post. The Skillinge IFK players were relieved to hear the final whistle blow to end the match. The away crowd was happy to see their team win after a very tight game.
