Spectators: 44 (Terracing: 34, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Marc Ahlstedt started the match with the kick off. The crowd rose to their feet as Tomas Berganza kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Erland Spetz. That made the score 1-0 in the 4 minute of play. When Tomas Berganza came up free with the goalie in the 14th minute, the Panama 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 Tomas Berganza couldn't finish the play. Aaron Barrios kicked well hit freekick during the 18th minute of the match. 22 minutes into the match, Panama's goal looked a bit too open when Fred Lidman came free, but Marcos Cotilla reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 23rd minute, Tomas Berganza managed to get in a good position for a shot. Panama's supporters rose to their feet, but Tomas Berganza was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Erland Spetz breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Johan Almkvist kicked well hit freekick during the 29th minute of the match. Marcos Cotilla showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Marc Ahlstedt in the 31st minute of the match. In the 35th minute, Näshulta FK's goalie took a deep sigh of relief after Abraham Alguacil fired away a hard shot that went just outside the left post. The crowd rose to their feet as Panama's Tomas Berganza slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Erland Spetz. That made the score 2-0 after 37 minutes of play. Af the end of the first half the score was 2-0. The first half had gone as expected for the home team.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Tomas Berganza was the one to do the kick off. Erland Spetz showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Tomas Berganza, who was totally free with the ball in the 66th minute. After 66 played minutes Näshulta FK got a freekick which was hit by Fred Lidman. An unexpectedly hard shot by Tomas Berganza in the 67th minute of play forced Näshulta FK's goalkeeper Erland Spetz to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Edward Eriksson had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 78th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 79th minute, Miguel Miralles hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Tage Göransson hit a great freekick 86 minutes into the match.
