In the 5th minute, Aleksandar Divljaković 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.

The supporters of Aradac booed when Srednji Banat was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 24 match minutes in a wonderful position. Mitar Vargec didn't get a good kick on the ball. Lale Biševac could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 25th minute of the match, but Slaviša Vasović made a huge save. An unexpectedly hard shot by Peđa Agatonović in the 26th minute of play forced Aradac's goalkeeper Cvijan Mališić to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After a rather tough play, Srednji Banat's Mitar Vargec got a free kick in the 28th minute. With an all-out effort, Aradac's Slaviša Vasović threw himself towards the right post 29 minutes into the match and grabbed hold of the ball from Aleksandar Divljaković, which otherwise would have been placed in the net. 31 minutes into the game, Golub Jozić was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Aradac's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Srednji Banat the free kick. After 31 played minutes Aradac got a freekick which was hit by Golub Jozić. Slaviša Vasović showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Aleksandar Divljaković, who was totally free with the ball in the 34th minute. After some fancy dribbling in the 38th minute, Peđa Agatonović managed to get in a good position for a shot. Srednji Banat's supporters rose to their feet, but Peđa Agatonović was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Cvijan Mališić breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 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 1-0.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Aleksandar Divljaković was the one to do the kick off. A collision led to Srednji Banat getting a freekick after 53 minutes play. Bojan Vulović hit a great ball. 55 minutes into the match, Srednji Banat's goal looked a bit too open when Aleksandar Divljaković came free, but Slaviša Vasović reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Peđa Agatonović in the 58th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Cvijan Mališić saved Aradac from getting behind. In the 63rd match minute, Srednji Banat was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Mitar Vargec to maneuver through the defense. In the 64th minute, Lale Biševac ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Slaviša Vasović was frozen by the shot and now it was 2-0. After 68 minutes of play, Aradac's Lale Biševac made it 3-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Slaviša Vasović was left in no man's land by his defense there! After a rather tough play, Aradac's Dojčin Isaković got a free kick in the 74th minute. Bojan Vulović has a good long shot, which he once again showed in the 75th minute of the match. Unfortunately the ball hit the outside of the left post.

The referee showed Nikola Kučević the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. In the 83rd minute, Dojčin Isaković sent off a long shot on goal, but the shot was nowhere near the goal and Srednji Banat's Slaviša Vasović didn't even have to move. Lale Biševac might have been able to make a better finish in the 88th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Slaviša Vasović. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Lale Biševac ran back to his position shaking his head. Aleksandar Divljaković sent away a hard shot on goal in the 90th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Aleksandar Divljaković had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 94th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Aradac's supporters were delighted with their team's performance and swarmed onto the pitch at the end of the match to celebrate the victory with the players.
