Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Cesare Di Domenico made the kick off which started today's match. Novate Mislanese's Filippo Sessa got a good chance for a goal in the 4th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After 8 minutes, Ettore Castellini mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Novate Mislanese and the GP2 Red Fields players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 8 played minutes Novate Mislanese got a freekick which was hit by Ettore Castellini. An unexpectedly hard shot by Cesare Di Domenico in the 14th minute of play forced Novate Mislanese's goalkeeper Arturo Talamo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After a defensive mix-up in GP2 Red Fields's zone, Emanuele Di Giandomenico stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Biagio Padula came out of the goal and Emanuele Di Giandomenico tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. If Filippo Sessa had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 20th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

The supporters of Novate Mislanese booed when GP2 Red Fields was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 27 match minutes in a wonderful position. Amedeo Salemme didn't get a good kick on the ball. Aldo Musacchio was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 28th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. Arturo Talamo made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Christian Saturno in the 31st minute of play.

Cristiano Molinario kicked well hit freekick during the 35th minute of the match. In the 40th minute the ball was on its way in behind GP2 Red Fields's goalkeeper Biagio Padula, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. The audience was convinced that Filippo Sessa's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Biagio Padula was relentless in the 44th minute of the game. Through an outstanding action, after 48 minutes, Biagio Padula successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

Biagio Padula made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Filippo Sessa in the 53rd minute of play. 56 minutes into the match, Novate Mislanese's goal looked a bit too open when Cesare Di Domenico came free, but Arturo Talamo reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Emanuele Di Giandomenico received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 63rd minute. Biagio Padula tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 73 minutes into the game, Emanuele Di Giandomenico cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-0. Biagio Padula was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. In the 77th minute Filippo Sessa shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Biagio Padula saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Novate Mislanese's Emanuele Di Giandomenico in the 86th minute got a chance for a shot 86th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye GP2 Red Fields's goalie prevented a goal. Emanuele Di Giandomenico sent away a hard shot on goal in the 91st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. There was no doubt that Novate Mislanese were the better team. Novate Mislanese's players enjoyed the ovations of the crowd after the victory.
