16659 spectators arrived at Olimpia Stadium, where weather conditions were pretty good for football. Étienne Tüddelkram was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Damiën Goyvaerts and Edgar Brandon. pLaSTiC decided to use a 3-4-3 set up. Starters: Ķīlis - Grandi Tognacci, Favaretto, Cortegiano - Montanaro, Técher, Cole, Cederle - Autzum, Rampinelli, Balzaretti.

A 5-4-1 alignment was the formation of choice for Coronati. They fielded: Ercolini - Pascali, Carniani, Rubolino, Devecchi, D'Agostino - Kaleshi, Beltrami, Pezzini, Bahrani - Malzani.

Many thought A. Grandi Tognacci ought to have been awarded a penalty 5 minutes into the game, as he went down trying to dribble around M. Ercolini after a determined run through the middle. pLaSTiC's T. Técher tried to break through in the middle repeatedly, but couldn't get past the visitors' defenders. pLaSTiC's A. Grandi Tognacci soared above the crowd, but couldn't knock the corner home 35 minutes into the match. Halftime score was 0 - 0. pLaSTiC enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 55 percent of possession.

50 minutes in, pLaSTiC's A. Grandi Tognacci received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. After 54 minutes a well-practised indirect free kick routine by pLaSTiC was easily anticipated by the defenders. The players forward were so well marked, they were left with few viable options. pLaSTiC's G. Rampinelli was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 77 minutes. Coronati had to make a substitution after 78 minutes. M. Kaleshi limped off the field and was replaced by J. Criscito. Making his way up the middle 81 minutes into the match, A. Grandi Tognacci almost managed to squeeze a goal past the visitors' keeper, but the alert M. Ercolini blocked it to keep the score level. Possession in this half belonged to pLaSTiC, who controlled the ball 58 percent of the time.

pLaSTiC's top performer was clearly G. Rampinelli. B. Cole on the other hand, had a terrible day. Coronati's best player was F. Malzani. J. Criscito was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 0.
