A very good chance. 4 minutes into the match, Amerigo La Penna had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Legimin Murtopo.

FC Mims's Amerigo La Penna got a good chance for a goal in the 7th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar.

After a defensive mix-up in Bandung Tigers's zone, Amerigo La Penna stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat.

Ikhsan Jamaluddin sped through FC Mims's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Bernardo Aceto. In the 34th minute Alessio Ubriaco shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Legimin Murtopo saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. A nice corner shot did that Alessio Ubriaco got away a dangerous shot. Despite this Legimin Murtopo quite easily got ahold of the ball to make the save. Flavio Di Matteo was astounded when the referee showed him the red card after a seemingly innocent challenge, 47 minutes into the match. In a very dangerous position, a player in FC Mims fell when an opponent tried to get the ball from him in the 47th minute. Penalty! The referee gave Bandung Tigers a penalty, 50 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by Aming Silaban, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of FC Mims's Bernardo Aceto. 2-2. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

The wind increased when M. Ikhsan Jamaluddin made the kick off in the second half. In the 56th minute, M. Ikhsan Jamaluddin made a precise shot to the right of Bernardo Aceto.

Ibing Tauhid recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 88th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If Bruno Ansoldi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 96th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The referee blew his whistle, and the match came to a close. The players exchanged shirts and headed down the tunnel. The Bandung Tigers fans cheered their team off the field, for while FC Mims had put up a good fight, they were unable to come out of the game with any points to show for their effort.
