Spectators: 7477 (Terracing: 5609, Seating: 1719, VIP seats: 149) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Ulryk Hatman got the match started through his kick off. David Ahlstedt took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Radowit Dziechciowski, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 12th minute, Zdzislaw Gondek 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. After 15 minutes, Alfred Fleszar mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the FC Wrocanka and the Al-Slottshöjden players grew even worse after the yellow card. Alfred Fleszar hit a great freekick 15 minutes into the match. 19 minutes into the game, Bernard Gerlach was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player.

The penalty shot was made by Hugo Valler, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of FC Wrocanka's Stefan Bochinski. 0-2. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Bengt-Arne Danielsson to make the kick off. Radowit Dziechciowski 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.

David Ahlstedt came out of the goal in the 67th minute to try and stop a shot by FC Wrocanka's Bernard Gerlach. But to his dismay, Bernard Gerlach quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-2. After a rather tough play, FC Wrocanka's Jerzy Frenzel got a free kick in the 75th minute. Hugo Valler's late challenge caught a FC Wrocanka's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain.
