Spectators: 161 (Terracing: 121, Seating: 37, VIP seats: 3) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Maurice Tisserand took the kick off in the first half of the match. 3 minutes into the match, ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's goal looked a bit too open when Maurice Tisserand came free, but Justus Kruppke reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Nico Kraatz charged in rather forcefully in the 5th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Nico Kraatz the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. In the 5th match minute, ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Nico Kraatz to maneuver through the defense. 10 minutes into the match, Gilberto Archambault sent off a long shot that looked like it was going straight into the goal, but because Justus Kruppke threw himself in his full length he managed to grip the ball by the left post, and there was no goal for Gilberto Archambault this time. 11 minutes into the match, ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's goal looked a bit too open when Toni Vogt came free, but Justus Kruppke reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 13 minutes into the match, 1. FC Union Weberei's goal looked a bit too open when Andre Kleinert came free, but Raphael Gilli reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 18 minutes into the match, ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's goalkeeper Justus Kruppke had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Freddy LondeLalonde. Raphael Gilli showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Andre Kleinert, who was totally free with the ball in the 19th minute. 20 minutes had been played when some careless play by 1. FC Union Weberei's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Andre Kleinert was slow to take the kick. During this time ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's players had a chance to rest. After taking down the ball on ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's corner Andre Kleinert fired away a hard shot, but the defenders efficiently covered the most dangerous angles and Raphael Gilli quite easily take care of the ball. When Dominik Korsus got free in front of the goal in the 20th minute he wasn't very focused and chipped the ball just over the goal. Raphael Gilli was delighted since he was out of position and the ball would have got in if it had gone under the crossbar. After 23 played minutes ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG got a freekick which was hit by Robert Peelen. When Maurice Tisserand came up free with the goalie in the 24th minute, the 1. FC Union Weberei fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Maurice Tisserand couldn't finish the play. When the match clock showed 27 minutes, the score became 1-1 when Maurice Tisserand sped through ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Justus Kruppke. 1. FC Union Weberei were furious when Thomas Propst was red carded, 34 minutes into the game, but the referee dismissed their protests. Andre Kleinert struck a weak shot in the 35th minute. Raphael Gilli didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG. 36 minutes into the match, Dominik Korsus had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Raphael Gilli. 1. FC Union Weberei's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Dominik Korsus was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-2. Raphael Gilli came out of the goal in the 39th minute to try and stop a shot by ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's Vojo Radkov. But to his dismay, Vojo Radkov quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-3. A collision led to ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG getting a freekick after 42 minutes play. Nico Kraatz hit a great ball. If Franz Kolb had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 44th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. An unexpectedly hard shot by Dominik Korsus in the 48th minute of play forced 1. FC Union Weberei's goalkeeper Raphael Gilli to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 1-3 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Dominik Korsus was the one to do the kick off. Gilberto Archambault recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 63rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG's Roland Schellander was substituted for Dominik Korsus. Nico Kraatz hit a great freekick 65 minutes into the match. Franz Kolb struck a weak shot in the 66th minute. Justus Kruppke didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 1. FC Union Weberei. Gilberto Archambault's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Justus Kruppke read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 70th minute of play. Raphael Gilli took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Roland Schellander, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Justus Kruppke made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Laurent Steiner in the 88th minute of play. Maurice Tisserand received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 96th minute. Justus Kruppke tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. When the final whistle sounded ΔΓЅΣ∏ ΔLLΔ ∏GΣGG left the ground with the victory after a much better performance than 1. FC Union Weberei.
