Spectators: 7526 (Terracing: 5645, Seating: 1731, VIP seats: 150) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Ernest van der Laan took the kick off in the first half of the match. After a rather tough play, Real Academia Serengetti's Lisandro Esquipula got a free kick in the 4th minute. Lázaro Bernal might have been able to make a better finish in the 6th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Henry Lembeck. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Lázaro Bernal ran back to his position shaking his head. Henry Lembeck made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Lázaro Bernal in the 6th minute of play. 13 minutes into the match, Celso Vimaro notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of Zijdewind SC's Henry Lembeck. Henry Lembeck was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. The crowd rose to their feet as Rudi den Hartog kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Vladimiro Pirro. That made the score 1-1 in the 17 minute of play. Lisandro Esquipula hit a great freekick 21 minutes into the match. Rudi den Hartog sent away a hard shot on goal in the 26th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When Robustiano Isias fell near the penalty area in the 29th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Real Academia Serengetti's protests and gave Robustiano Isias a yellow card for diving instead. The supporters of Zijdewind SC booed when Real Academia Serengetti was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 29 match minutes in a wonderful position. Robustiano Isias didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 30 played minutes, Zijdewind SC's Gert Kroeze shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Vladimiro Pirro came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Zijdewind SC reached it. Zijdewind SC's Henry Lembeck played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Lázaro Bernal in the 32nd minute of play. Lázaro Bernal struck a weak shot in the 33rd minute. Henry Lembeck didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Real Academia Serengetti. In the 34th minute, Roque Ramond ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Henry Lembeck was frozen by the shot and now it was 1-2.

Henry Lembeck was a little too slow when Lázaro Bernal got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 51st minute. The score was now 1-4. Vladimiro Pirro showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Rudi den Hartog, who was totally free with the ball in the 55th minute. If Ferdi Dekens had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 58th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The long shot by Silvano Grabiel in the 60th minute really tested Henry Lembeck's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal.
