Spectators: 7568 (Terracing: 5677, Seating: 1740, VIP seats: 151) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Iwo Wolicki started the match with the kick off. A hard shot by Celestino Basualdo from long distance, 10 minutes into the match, got Tommi Adams's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. In the 12th minute, Nemesio Lauro hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 19th minute, Dennis Schulz made a precise shot to the right of Danilo Heli. Trinidad 4.7's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-1. 23 minutes into the match, Trinidad 4.7's Leo Ochoa sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Tommi Adams narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Danilo Heli showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Sali Urban, who was totally free with the ball in the 24th minute. After 26 played minutes ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG got a freekick which was hit by Iwo Wolicki.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Leo Ochoa to strike the kick off in the second half.

The ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG fans' excitement grew in the 62nd match minute when ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's Dennis Schulz looked to have a clear shot with the ball near the goal. The shot wasn't hard, but the ball still rolled over the goal line to make it 0-2 before the goalkeeper had a chance to intervene. In the 64th match minute, Trinidad 4.7 was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Aurelio Oskarbi to maneuver through the defense.

Danilo Heli took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Dennis Schulz, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Thanks to some nice moves Sali Urban could shoot a difficult shot in the 69th minute, which Danilo Heli however easily saved by the left post. Dennis Schulz might have been able to make a better finish in the 70th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Danilo Heli. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Dennis Schulz ran back to his position shaking his head. 70 minutes into the match, Iwo Wolicki notched a goal, 0-3, to the right of Trinidad 4.7's Danilo Heli. Danilo Heli was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After 73 minutes, Roberto-Carlos Effenberger mouthed his way into the referee's book.

Jonas Quacken thought of kicking away a contribution in front of goal but messed it up so badly that the ball went to the right of an astonished Tommi Adams, a very annoying self made goal in the 81st minute which led to 1-3. Tommi Adams showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Celestino Basualdo in the 86th minute of the match.

In the 94th minute, Celestino Basualdo hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Aurelio Oskarbi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 97th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
