Spectators: 40 (Terracing: 31, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Teobald Solarek made the kick off which started today's match. When Ecuador's Agustín Saelices in 6 game minutes managed to cut through with the ball in front of the goal, only having to shoot. Jedrzej Japola guarding the goal like a pit bull was extremely focused and managed to reach the ball just by the crossbar before it went in. In the 7th match minute, IKS JEZIORAK was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Olaf Pleban to maneuver through the defense. Daniel Zorita received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 10th minute. Jedrzej Japola tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. The audience was convinced that Daniel Zorita's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Jedrzej Japola was relentless in the 11th minute of the game. After 15 minutes IKS JEZIORAK's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Daniel Zorita who took care of the corner kick. A nice corner shot did that Felix Montes got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Jedrzej Japola quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. Julio Vera showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Zachariasz Pietras in the 17th minute of the match. With a little luck, Ecuador's Julio Vera got control of the ball when Teobald Solarek tried to sneak it across the goal line. If Agustín Saelices had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 26th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The audience thought a goal was coming when Zachariasz Pietras got free with Julio Vera in the 28th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Daniel Zorita to make the kick off. Zachariasz Pietras hit a great freekick 51 minutes into the match. In the 52nd minute the ball was on its way in behind IKS JEZIORAK's goalkeeper Jedrzej Japola, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. An unexpectedly hard shot by Zachariasz Pietras in the 53rd minute of play forced Ecuador's goalkeeper Julio Vera to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 55th minute Cristian Sancho shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jedrzej Japola saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. In the 56th minute Cristian Sancho shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jedrzej Japola saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 56 minutes, Leonard Kiszkiel mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the IKS JEZIORAK and the Ecuador players grew even worse after the yellow card. Leonard Kiszkiel hit a great freekick 56 minutes into the match. Primitivo Andino hit a great freekick 58 minutes into the match. 66 minutes into the match, IKS JEZIORAK's goal looked a bit too open when Cristian Sancho came free, but Jedrzej Japola reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 67th minute of the match Ecuador got a corner. IKS JEZIORAK's goalie ran out to the linesman to protest the call, but the linesman resolutely pointed his flag at the cornerflag. Daniel Zorita ran over to the corner to take the kick. Primitivo Andino hit a great freekick 67 minutes into the match. IKS JEZIORAK's Jedrzej Japola played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Luis Andino in the 74th minute of play. After some fancy dribbling in the 77th minute, Cristian Sancho managed to get in a good position for a shot. Ecuador's supporters rose to their feet, but Cristian Sancho was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Jedrzej Japola breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. When the match had gone on for 88 minutes, Cristian Sancho took a quick shot and it went in 1-1 without a chance for Jedrzej Japola to make any attempt to save it. Zachariasz Pietras fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 91st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Julio Vera having to interfere. IKS JEZIORAK succeeded in salvaging a draw, even though Ecuador had controlled the match.
