After 23 minutes of play, Mukifus FSCMZ's João Paulo Neiva made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Andre Tanzil was left in no man's land by his defense there! The long shot by Otong Alexander in the 26th minute really tested Jean Romero's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Ruslan Worabay in the 28th minute of play forced Mukifus FSCMZ's goalkeeper Jean Romero to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Andre Tanzil made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Delfim Figueiredo in the 32nd minute of play. Delfim Figueiredo's late challenge caught a FC LOMSKY's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Delfim Figueiredo helped the player get up and apologised. Delfim Figueiredo kicked well hit freekick during the 37th minute of the match. Widyawan Hakim's late challenge caught a Mukifus FSCMZ's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Widyawan Hakim helped the player get up and apologised. A collision led to FC LOMSKY getting a freekick after 41 minutes play. Widyawan Hakim hit a great ball. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling João Paulo Neiva in the 43rd minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Andre Tanzil prevented the ball from getting in the gole. If João Paulo Neiva had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 47th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and João Paulo Neiva made a kick off. In the 54th minute, Delfim Figueiredo 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. João Paulo Neivas short, quick shot in the 55thth minute got Andre Tanzil to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in. Jean Romero made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Isman Suhaya in the 60th minute of play. When Duloh Haddad came up free with the goalie in the 75th minute, the FC LOMSKY fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Duloh Haddad couldn't finish the play. FC LOMSKY's Duloh Haddad got a good chance for a goal in the 82nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Andre Tanzil made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Delfim Figueiredo in the 85th minute of play.

Delfim Figueiredo 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.
