Bertil Åström showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 2-0. Zero Hedge's Jens-Ola Löv played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Alvar Justiniano in the 45th minute of play.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Bertil Åström was the one to do the kick off. Freddie Lindholm scored 3-0 in the 52nd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Nereo Mancilla, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. When Alfred Österberg fell near the penalty area in the 58th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Zero Hedge's protests and gave Alfred Österberg a yellow card for diving instead. In the 60th minute, Alfred Österberg left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Zero Hedge fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 4-0. Toqui Fc made a substitution. Higinio Martos replaced Demesio Montesinos. In the 72nd minute, Bertil Åström made a precise shot to the right of Nereo Mancilla. Toqui Fc's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 5-0.

In the 85th match minute, Zero Hedge was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Bertil Åström to maneuver through the defense.
