Spectators: 152 (Terracing: 114, Seating: 35, VIP seats: 3) The supporters of UÅ Mästerbotten booed when Heavy Balls FC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 6 match minutes in a wonderful position. Joel Nordin didn't get a good kick on the ball. Sven-Erik Ivarsson kicked well hit freekick during the 10th minute of the match. If Forrest Gumpfer had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 14th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After a defensive mix-up in Heavy Balls FC's zone, Calle Lundqvist stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Felix Grubb came out of the goal and Calle Lundqvist tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 26th minute, Kurt Hjortberg left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Heavy Balls FC fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-0. Sven-Erik Ivarsson could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 30th minute of the match, but Niklas Ström made a huge save. UÅ Mästerbotten's Niklas Ström proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 32nd minute of the match, managed to save UÅ Mästerbotten from getting a goal against them. Felix Grubb stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Marcus Söderman's shot from short distance in the 34th minute. If Calle Lundqvist had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 41st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Jörgen Ekblom's late challenge caught a UÅ Mästerbotten's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Jörgen Ekblom helped the player get up and apologised.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Kurt Hjortberg to strike the kick off in the second half. Kurt Hjortberg took the ball and in the 51 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Niklas Ström. Niklas Ström dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 2-0. Marcus Söderman's shot when he came free in front of the goal in the 56thth minute, Felix Grubb skillfully showed off with a save to what seemed to be an obvious goal. The crowd rose to their feet as UÅ Mästerbotten's Marcus Söderman slotted home a wonderful shot that went in to the left of Felix Grubb. That made the score 2-1 after 60 minutes of play. Kurt Hjortberg sent away a hard shot on goal in the 69th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Allan Isaksson's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Niklas Ström read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 83rd minute of play. Gustav Mellin took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 91st minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Niklas Ström. UÅ Mästerbotten's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. Heavy Balls FC's Felix Grubb played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Forrest Gumpfer in the 93rd minute of play. UÅ Mästerbotten's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
