Spectators: 45 (Terracing: 35, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) BYDGOSTIA's Olgierd Kowalski started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. After 8 played minutes STORM CORNER F.C. got a freekick which was hit by Cesare Silvestre. Olgierd Kowalski recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 16th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Zbyszko Leper made a fantastic save in the 21st minute, when Ede Szász sent off a good shot on target. Ede Szász could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 23rd minute of the match, but Zbyszko Leper made a huge save. Zbyszko Leper stood somewhat misplaced when Ede Szász came free in front of goal and shot 1-0 to the left of him in the 24 minute. Zbyszko Leper was a little too slow when Ede Szász got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 28th minute. The score was now 2-0. In the 32nd minute Olgierd Kowalski shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Kaan Winter saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Dariusz Smuskiewicz sent away a hard shot on goal in the 35th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Kaan Winter showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Olgierd Kowalski, who was totally free with the ball in the 38th minute. Thanks to some nice moves Ede Szász could shoot a difficult shot in the 41st minute, which Zbyszko Leper however easily saved by the left post. Olgierd Kowalski's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Kaan Winter read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 44th minute of play. Zbyszko Leper made a fantastic save in the 46th minute, when Ede Szász sent off a good shot on target. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Ede Szász was the one to do the kick off. 57 minutes into the match, STORM CORNER F.C.'s goalkeeper Kaan Winter had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Olgierd Kowalski. In the 59th minute, BYDGOSTIA's Hilario Dalmai seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Hilario Dalmai the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of BYDGOSTIA protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Hilario Dalmai had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. If Olgierd Kowalski had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 64th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Bartolo Ferdinand hit a great freekick 78 minutes into the match. BYDGOSTIA made a substitution. Marcin Prusinowski replaced Piotr Gorzkiewicz. BYDGOSTIA's Sebastian Bochynski was substituted for Patryk Zgonina. A collision led to STORM CORNER F.C. getting a freekick after 79 minutes play. Bartolo Ferdinand hit a great ball. Zbyszko Leper stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Ede Szász's shot from short distance in the 81st minute. After 83 minutes of play, STORM CORNER F.C.'s Ede Szász made it 3-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Zbyszko Leper was left in no man's land by his defense there! When Pan Mo Xiang came up free with the goalie in the 89th minute, the STORM CORNER F.C. 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 Pan Mo Xiang couldn't finish the play. 93 minutes into the match, STORM CORNER F.C.'s goal looked a bit too open when Olgierd Kowalski came free, but Kaan Winter reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. BYDGOSTIA's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Sebastian Bochynski in the 95th minute. Mariusz Warka was in a good position and managed to take a shot, but he missed just to the outside of the post. BYDGOSTIA's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
