Spectators: 6757 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1757, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Eugenios Labrakos started the match with the kick off. The supporters of Tsαrisi FC booed when Votsalαkia BC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 14 match minutes in a wonderful position. Nikos Kaloumenos didn't get a good kick on the ball. Stratos Loubakis took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Chatziioannou Iatropoulos, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Tsαrisi FC's Stratos Loubakis played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Nikitas Katsibalos in the 22nd minute of play. 29 minutes into the match, Nikitas Katsibalos had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Stratos Loubakis. Tsαrisi FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Nikitas Katsibalos was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. An unexpected shot in the 33rd minute by Paris Klanakis got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. In the 37th minute of the match Manolis Meimaroglou shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Themis Peris showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball.

The referee showed Nikos Kaloumenos the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. 41 minutes into the match, Tsαrisi FC's goal looked a bit too open when Manolis Mamais came free, but Stratos Loubakis reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Nikitas Katsibalos made a kick off. Paris Klanakis sent away a hard shot on goal in the 58th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 62nd minute of the match, Nikitas Katsibalos tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Stratos Loubakis saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. Thanks to some nice moves Manolis Mamais could shoot a difficult shot in the 63rd minute, which Stratos Loubakis however easily saved by the left post.

Stratos Loubakis was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. 90 minutes into the game, Manolis Mamais recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Stratos Loubakis. Manolis Mamais showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 1-4.
