Spectators: 7510 (Terracing: 5633, Seating: 1727, VIP seats: 150) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Mahmut Llakmani kicked off to start the match. Luli Tirona sent away a hard shot on goal in the 4th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Wincenty Zapolski made a fantastic save in the 6th minute, when Luli Tirona sent off a good shot on target. Baki Zhobro hit a great freekick 12 minutes into the match. In the 14th minute, Wincent Prusinowski hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Risto Mancaku, 15 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. Wincenty Zapolski made an important save on a dangerous shot by Luli Tirona in the 17th minute. In the 21st minute, Adam Radziszewski ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Edi Hasani was frozen by the shot and now it was 0-1. After some fancy dribbling in the 26th minute, Adam Radziszewski managed to get in a good position for a shot. MZ Wodzisław Śląski's supporters rose to their feet, but Adam Radziszewski was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Edi Hasani breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 29th minute, Luli Tirona left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The LOS BLANCOS fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-1. MZ Wodzisław Śląski's Krzysztof Pieprz quite brazenly broke a throw-in by Lisandër Jaçelli, made in the 32nd minute of the game. After 34 played minutes MZ Wodzisław Śląski got a freekick which was hit by Boruc Szostak. In the 36th minute Adam Radziszewski shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Edi Hasani saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. LOS BLANCOS's Cássio Ferreira suffered a sprained foot after 41 minutes and couldn't finish the game. After 41 minutes, Adam Radziszewski mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the MZ Wodzisław Śląski and the LOS BLANCOS players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 42 played minutes MZ Wodzisław Śląski got a freekick which was hit by Adam Radziszewski. 43 minutes into the game, Luli Tirona was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. LOS BLANCOS's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave MZ Wodzisław Śląski the free kick. After a rather tough play, LOS BLANCOS's Luli Tirona got a free kick in the 43rd minute. MZ Wodzisław Śląski's Wincenty Zapolski played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Mahmut Llakmani in the 47th minute of play.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Adam Radziszewski stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. 53 minutes into the game, Franciszek Gongola recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Edi Hasani. Franciszek Gongola showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 1-2. Luli Tirona scored 2-2 in the 56th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Wincenty Zapolski, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. After 61 played minutes LOS BLANCOS got a freekick which was hit by Baki Zhobro. Baki Zhobro fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 64th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Wincenty Zapolski having to interfere. If Czeslaw Skaradoski had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 68th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. The audience thought a goal was coming when Adam Radziszewski got free with Edi Hasani in the 71st minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Franciszek Gongola struck a weak shot in the 72nd minute. Edi Hasani didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for MZ Wodzisław Śląski. Krzysztof Pieprz hit a great freekick 77 minutes into the match. Edi Hasani made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Adam Radziszewski in the 82nd minute of play. In the 94th minute, Valentin Muka hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.
