Melker Dalgren fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 23rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Jon Sjöberg having to interfere. 27 minutes into the match, Casa Pia FC's goal looked a bit too open when Melker Dalgren came free, but Jon Sjöberg reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Dick Gunnarsson's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Oscar Vallin read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 60th minute of play. With a little luck, Casa Pia FC's Jon Sjöberg got control of the ball when Melker Dalgren tried to sneak it across the goal line. Jon Sjöberg came out of the goal in the 66th minute to try and stop a shot by Älta's Melker Dalgren.

Melker Dalgren fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 71st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Jon Sjöberg having to interfere. In the 73rd minute, Harald Apelquist fired away a shot on goal. He put a little to much spin on the ball and sent it just wide of the right post. The audience was convinced that Harald Apelquist's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Jon Sjöberg was relentless in the 78th minute of the game. Melker Dalgren received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 87th minute. Jon Sjöberg tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Melker Dalgren had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 90th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. After 91 played minutes Casa Pia FC got a freekick which was hit by Gösta Melberg. Älta's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Hjalmar Svanberg in the 94th minute. A nice corner shot did that Hjalmar Svanberg got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Jon Sjöberg quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. The Casa Pia FC fans had already started to leave before the final whistle blew. Älta were clearly better and deserved to take the win.
