Spectators: 7495 (Terracing: 5622, Seating: 1724, VIP seats: 149) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Roch Kluczyk kicked off to start the match. Alisdair Ferries showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Gwidon Kornaszewski, who was totally free with the ball in the 9th minute. After 11 minutes, Tam Clerk made it 0-1 with a short kick to the right side. KRK BULLS's Stanislaw Jaszyna tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. Drew McMurchie sent away a hard shot on goal in the 21st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Michal Swoboda might have been able to make a better finish in the 23rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Alisdair Ferries. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Michal Swoboda ran back to his position shaking his head. Drew McMurchie sent away a hard shot on goal in the 26th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Roch Kluczyk in the 32nd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Alisdair Ferries saved Lord of the Wings from getting behind. In the 42nd minute, Pankracy Golec hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Tam Clerk had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 46th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Michal Swoboda fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 48th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Alisdair Ferries having to interfere. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Tam Clerk made a kick off. 53 minutes into the match, KRK BULLS's goal looked a bit too open when Tam Clerk came free, but Stanislaw Jaszyna reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Tam Clerk sent away a hard shot on goal in the 59th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. A collision led to KRK BULLS getting a freekick after 61 minutes play. Roch Kluczyk hit a great ball. 63 minutes into the match, Tam Clerk had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Stanislaw Jaszyna. KRK BULLS's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Tam Clerk was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-2. Korneliusz Rosiewicz charged in rather forcefully in the 65th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Korneliusz Rosiewicz the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Korneliusz Rosiewicz kicked well hit freekick during the 65th minute of the match. If Drew McMurchie had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 67th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 69 minutes into the match, Korneliusz Rosiewicz had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Alisdair Ferries. Lord of the Wings's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Korneliusz Rosiewicz was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-2. Tam Clerks short, quick shot in the 73rdth minute got Stanislaw Jaszyna to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in. When Guy McMurrich fell near the penalty area in the 86th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Lord of the Wings's protests and gave Guy McMurrich a yellow card for diving instead. Lord of the Wings's Alisdair Ferries played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Roch Kluczyk in the 92nd minute of play. Lord of the Wings were disappointed that they only managed a draw, even though they felt themselves to be the better team.
