Spectators: 8423 (Terracing: 6318, Seating: 1937, VIP seats: 168) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Kleon Sfakianakis started the match with the kick off. In the 3rd minute, Punisher's Theodosis Petrochilos seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Theodosis Petrochilos the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of Punisher protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Theodosis Petrochilos had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. Iordanis Argyridis had in the 5thth minute some difficulties stopping Vassilis Kouropoulos's well aimed penalty as it nearly passed him on his left side, but he still managed to hold the ball. 8 minutes into the match, Kokkinaikos F.C.'s goal looked a bit too open when Ignatios Philipou came free, but Dorotheos Belesis reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The throw-in from Dimos Lazaroglou in the 10th minute of the game was unfortunally taken care of by Kokkinaikos F.C.'s Daniil Metzelos.
