Stadion Strzygi
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Barclay Duggan kicked off to start the match. 12 minutes into the match, Strzygi SA's goal looked a bit too open when Barclay Duggan came free, but Jerzy Kochowski reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Aleksander Walentowicz hit a great freekick 17 minutes into the match. The audience was convinced that Torran McLian's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Jerzy Kochowski was relentless in the 19th minute of the game. Barclay Duggan fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 24th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Jerzy Kochowski having to interfere. After 29 minutes, Bray Ramsey mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Hillside and the Strzygi SA players grew even worse after the yellow card. In a very dangerous position, a player in Hillside fell when an opponent tried to get the ball from him in the 28th minute. Penalty! Beehan Caffey received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 35th minute. Jerzy Kochowski tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Jerzy Kochowski made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Barclay Duggan in the 48th minute of play. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Edward Naumowicz made a kick off. Strzygi SA's Edward Naumowicz got a good chance for a goal in the 52nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. When Antoni Percha came up free with the goalie in the 53rd minute, the Strzygi SA 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 Antoni Percha couldn't finish the play. Antoni Percha fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 56th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Flannery McLiam having to interfere. 68 minutes into the game, Hillside's Torran McLian nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Jerzy Kochowski made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 0-1. In the 71st minute, Torran McLian fired away a shot on goal. He put a little to much spin on the ball and sent it just wide of the right post. Torran McLian struck a weak shot in the 75th minute. Jerzy Kochowski didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Hillside. Flannery McLiam made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Antoni Percha in the 83rd minute of play. After 88 played minutes Hillside got a freekick which was hit by Teigue Gallagher. Flannery McLiam showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Edward Naumowicz in the 91st minute of the match.
