Spectators: 33 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Arne Sundberg took the kick off in the first half of the match. 3 minutes into the match, Fåker's goalkeeper Nicklas Lindström had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Kurt Nyman. When Kurt Nyman came up free with the goalie in the 12th minute, the BergsTrollen HK 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 Kurt Nyman couldn't finish the play.

Rolf Boman sent away a hard shot on goal in the 15th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. Kurt Nyman succeeded in the game's 17th minute to shoot an unreachable shot under the crossbar and scored - 2-0. Freddie Nilsson recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 23rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Åke Bållström took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Rolf Boman, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Nicklas Lindström came out of the goal in the 29th minute to try and stop a shot by BergsTrollen HK's Kurt Nyman. But to his dismay, Kurt Nyman quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 3-0. 31 minutes into the game, Gert Tholsson was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Fåker's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave BergsTrollen HK the free kick. In the 31st match minute, Fåker was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Gert Tholsson to maneuver through the defense. In the 41st minute of the match, Arne Sundberg tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Nicklas Lindström saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. Freddie Nilsson fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 43rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Åke Bållström having to interfere. Åke Bållström stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Rolf Boman's shot from short distance in the 45th minute. When the referee blew for the end of the half the home team players were clearly happier, as they went in to the break leading 3-0.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Freddie Nilsson to make the kick off.
