Spectators: 206 (Terracing: 155, Seating: 47, VIP seats: 4) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Svetozar Petrusevski started the match with the kick off. Alen Kovič took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Svetozar Petrusevski, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The supporters of Wonderkids booed when --Sibenik-- was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 5 match minutes in a wonderful position. Antun Lacmanović didn't get a good kick on the ball. When Filip Makedonski came up free with the goalie in the 7th minute, the Wonderkids 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 Filip Makedonski couldn't finish the play. In the 9th minute, Filip Makedonski hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 16th minute Antun Bunić shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Emil Nikoloski saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The corner first didn't look so dangerous but when Antun Bunić got the ball he succeeded in some way to get through the defenders to deliver a very hard score. Result 1-0. 18 minutes into the match. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Svetozar Petrusevski in the 29th minute a chance for a shot on goal.

After some fancy dribbling in the 34th minute, Antun Bunić managed to get in a good position for a shot. --Sibenik--'s supporters rose to their feet, but Antun Bunić was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Emil Nikoloski breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Filip Makedonski recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 37th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After a rather tough play, --Sibenik--'s Domagoj Kovič got a free kick in the 41st minute. Wonderkids's Lorik Cana got a good chance for a goal in the 42nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Af the end of the first half the score was 1-0.
