Spectators: 7663 (Terracing: 5748, Seating: 1762, VIP seats: 153) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. 方建弘 started the match with the kick off. Sten Johnsson charged in rather forcefully in the 5th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Sten Johnsson the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. 温枫磊 struck a weak shot in the 9th minute. André Olenberg didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 【AC】Black Dragon-名剑. Isac Andersson sent away a hard shot on goal in the 14th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After a rather tough play, 【AC】Black Dragon-名剑's 方建弘 got a free kick in the 17th minute.

In the 21st minute Isac Andersson shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 潘斌永 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After a defensive mix-up in 【AC】Black Dragon-名剑's zone, Marc Albom stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. 潘斌永 came out of the goal and Marc Albom tried to chip the ball over his head.

Marc Albom recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 32nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Marc Albom to strike the kick off in the second half. If Marc Albom had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 51st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 53rd minute Marc Albom shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 潘斌永 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Filip Hermansson was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 64th minute. TSIGALKO's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. In the 65th minute, Marc Albom reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of 潘斌永. The goal made the score 1-2.
