Spectators: 39 (Terracing: 30, Seating: 9, VIP seats: 0) Lukas Arlikevičius started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. Teodelina FC's Leopoldo Orlan quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Paul Vase, made in the 6th minute of the game. Wojciech Fiszer kicked well hit freekick during the 9th minute of the match.

In the 19th minute Lukas Arlikevičius shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Roberto Eztebe saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 23 minutes, Wojciech Fiszer mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the AFC FUSION and the Teodelina FC players grew even worse after the yellow card.

In the 46th minute, Lukas Arlikevičius left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Teodelina FC fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-1.

Fernando Redondo was slow to take the kick. During this time Teodelina FC's players had a chance to rest. The corner led Teodelina FC's Fernando Redondo to fire away a dangerous shot which Roberto Eztebe despite some difficulties managed to get hold on the ball. After a defensive mix-up in Teodelina FC's zone, Lino Rios stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Franko Armani came out of the goal and Lino Rios tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The supporters of Teodelina FC booed when AFC FUSION was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 61 match minutes in a wonderful position.

Jan Hop hit a great freekick 82 minutes into the match. In the 82nd minute the ball was on its way in behind AFC FUSION's goalkeeper Roberto Eztebe, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. A hard shot 84 in the game by Christoff Stocks from a close distance when the talented Franko Armani managed to make a qualified save. Teodelina FC's players were relieved. The audience thought a goal was coming when Christoff Stocks got free with Franko Armani in the 87th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort.

After 92 played minutes, Teodelina FC's Fernando Redondo shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Roberto Eztebe came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Teodelina FC reached it. Roberto Eztebe showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Hilario Galo, who was totally free with the ball in the 94th minute. AFC FUSION's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
