Spectators: 153 (Terracing: 115, Seating: 35, VIP seats: 3) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Slawomir Rzegotka started the match with the kick off. Slawomir Rzegotka sent away a hard shot on goal in the 5th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

In the 8th minute, Boruc Skikiewicz ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Tolek Trela was frozen by the shot and now it was 1-0.
