Through an outstanding action, after 22 minutes, Anselmo Buffone successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. 庞皓霖 made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Armin Piccone in the 24th minute of play. 温默平 hit a great freekick 24 minutes into the match. After having played for 29 minutes, 范皓战 managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. 【FLY】宁波奉化星际银河队's supporters crossed their fingers, but 范皓战 was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After 32 minutes, Donato Tosi mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Bar Marconi United and the 【FLY】宁波奉化星际银河队 players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 32nd match minute, Bar Marconi United was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Donato Tosi to maneuver through the defense. In the 35th minute the ball was on its way in behind Bar Marconi United's goalkeeper Anselmo Buffone, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 温默平's late challenge caught a Bar Marconi United's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. 温默平 helped the player get up and apologised. In the 39th match minute, 【FLY】宁波奉化星际银河队 was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by 温默平 to maneuver through the defense. 范皓战 received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 45th minute.

The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Alessio Balzani in the 51st minute of play forced 【FLY】宁波奉化星际银河队's goalkeeper 庞皓霖 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 庞皓霖 showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Enzo Cera, who was totally free with the ball in the 59th minute. 【FLY】宁波奉化星际银河队's 庞皓霖 played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Enzo Cera in the 60th minute of play. 62 minutes had been played when some careless play by 【FLY】宁波奉化星际银河队's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Enzo Cera was slow to take the kick. During this time Bar Marconi United's players had a chance to rest. Enzo Cera made a great header on Bar Marconi United's corner, it was just that 【FLY】宁波奉化星际银河队's 庞皓霖 managed to reach the ball for a save. 69 minutes into the game, 【FLY】宁波奉化星际银河队's 范皓战 nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot.

In the 82nd minute, Armin Piccone reached a very good position and smashed the ball with a huge effort into the net, just to the left of 庞皓霖. The goal made the score 5-1. In the 87th minute Enzo Cera shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 庞皓霖 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Enzo Cera might have been able to make a better finish in the 89th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over 庞皓霖. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Enzo Cera ran back to his position shaking his head. Anselmo Buffone made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from 蔡庭荣 in the 95th minute of play.
