The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Anthony Baratta during the 4th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. Andrea Vago lost his temper 7 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card. In the 6th minute, one of Marksson:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Marksson. Anthony Baratta received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 17th minute. Ercole Marzulli tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Alvise Pich received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 24th minute. Ercole Marzulli tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After a defensive mix-up in SALIMB FC's zone, Anthony Baratta stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ercole Marzulli came out of the goal and Anthony Baratta tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. SALIMB FC's Ercole Marzulli played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Anthony Baratta in the 38th minute of play. Alvise Pich fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 40th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ercole Marzulli having to interfere.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Diego Silvestre stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Ercole Marzulli showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Alvise Pich in the 53rd minute of the match. With a little luck, Marksson's Emiliano Castellani got control of the ball when Alessandro Riva tried to sneak it across the goal line. If Alberto Chitarroni had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 58th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 64th minute, Anfilogino Nazzaro got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. After a rather tough play, SALIMB FC's Ermanno Anzolin got a free kick in the 68th minute. 72 minutes into the match, SALIMB FC's goal looked a bit too open when Anfilogino Nazzaro came free, but Ercole Marzulli reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 74 minutes into the match, Marksson's goalkeeper Emiliano Castellani had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Alessandro Riva. Anthony Baratta sent away a hard shot on goal in the 80th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The supporters of Marksson booed when SALIMB FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 84 match minutes in a wonderful position. Emiliano Petrosino didn't get a good kick on the ball. The Marksson manager could be seen shouting at his players as they walked down the tunnel after the match. He was clearly angry that they had squandered their superior possession, allowing SALIMB FC to win.
