Spectators: 45 (Terracing: 35, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Vintilă Ticulescu made the kick off which started today's match. Eliodor Buciu showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Chip Preece in the 3rd minute of the match. If Chip Preece had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 12th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. CJ Trusswell fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 15th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Eliodor Buciu having to interfere. Sebastian Cross showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Cristinel Lipan in the 18th minute of the match. Eliodor Buciu showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Chip Preece in the 19th minute of the match.

Emil Danciu scored 1-1 in the 27th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Sebastian Cross, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

With an all-out effort, Clapham Comets F.C.'s Eliodor Buciu threw himself towards the right post 46 minutes into the match and grabbed hold of the ball from Chip Preece, which otherwise would have been placed in the net. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

When Viorel Bota fell near the penalty area in the 50th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored YR☆Bald Eagle™'s protests and gave Viorel Bota a yellow card for diving instead. Viorel Bota kicked well hit freekick during the 50th minute of the match. In the 60th minute, Clapham Comets F.C.'s Marc Van Der Hoorn seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Marc Van Der Hoorn the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of Clapham Comets F.C. protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Marc Van Der Hoorn had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. In the 59th minute, one of Clapham Comets F.C.:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Clapham Comets F.C.. The goalkeeper, Sebastian Cross, was totally fooled by YR☆Bald Eagle™'s Emil Danciu, who 61 minutes into the game made a penalty shot that went in on the goalkeeper's left side. 68 minutes into the match, Clapham Comets F.C.'s goal looked a bit too open when Emil Danciu came free, but Sebastian Cross reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

After 85 played minutes YR☆Bald Eagle™ got a freekick which was hit by Cristinel Lipan. Chip Preece, 85 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal. Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. The supporters of Clapham Comets F.C. booed when YR☆Bald Eagle™ was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 86 match minutes in a wonderful position. Emil Danciu didn't get a good kick on the ball. With a little luck, Clapham Comets F.C.'s Sebastian Cross got control of the ball when Emil Danciu tried to sneak it across the goal line.
