Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Edmund Carlsson kicked off to start the match. A hard shot by Victor Bäcklin from long distance, 4 minutes into the match, got Sven-Erik Eckegren's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. Olov Petersson kicked well hit freekick during the 6th minute of the match. After recieving a nice pass, Köpmanholmen's Erik Bäck tried to score from far away in the 7th minute, but the ball went over the crossbar. Svanesund FK's Sven-Erik Eckegren played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Rickard Linqvist in the 11th minute of play. 14 minutes into the match, Köpmanholmen's goal looked a bit too open when Edmund Carlsson came free, but Oskar Vikström reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Sven-Erik Eckegren showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Rickard Linqvist, who was totally free with the ball in the 16th minute. Rickard Linqvist was extremely unlucky when he, in the 21st minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. After 27 minutes, Gabriel Hedberg mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Köpmanholmen and the Svanesund FK players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 27 played minutes Köpmanholmen got a freekick which was hit by Gabriel Hedberg. Rickard Linqvist received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 43rd minute. Sven-Erik Eckegren tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Rickard Linqvist was the one to do the kick off. Rickard Linqvist recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 58th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Köpmanholmen's defense didn't have a chance, in the 60th minute, when Edmund Carlsson scored to the left of an out of position Oskar Vikström, making the score, 0-2. Olov Petersson kicked well hit freekick during the 62nd minute of the match. The audience was convinced that Orvar Bredberg's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Sven-Erik Eckegren was relentless in the 63rd minute of the game. The crowd rose to their feet as Svanesund FK's Edmund Carlsson slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Oskar Vikström. That made the score 0-3 after 68 minutes of play. Magnus Andersson could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 72nd minute of the match, but Oskar Vikström made a huge save. If Magnus Andersson had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 75th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Sven-Erik Eckegren showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Rickard Linqvist in the 80th minute of the match. In the 82nd minute the ball was on its way in behind Svanesund FK's goalkeeper Sven-Erik Eckegren, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. The supporters of Köpmanholmen booed when Svanesund FK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 82 match minutes in a wonderful position. Olov Petersson didn't get a good kick on the ball. Orvar Bredberg took the ball and in the 84 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Sven-Erik Eckegren. Sven-Erik Eckegren dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-3. When Rickard Linqvist came up free with the goalie in the 91st minute, the Köpmanholmen 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 Rickard Linqvist couldn't finish the play. Sven-Erik Eckegren made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Orvar Bredberg in the 96th minute of play. The Köpmanholmen supporters were disappointed that their team didn't take anything from the match, despite matching Svanesund FK's performance. The match ended with a win for Svanesund FK.
