Given a free kick close to the byline, Caótico tried a move that loyal fans may recognise from training. A pass to the side pulled the defence out of position which let V. Bajraktari slip through on goal. He didn't have to break his stride, and slipped the ball past the keeper to make it 0 - 1, 4 minutes into the game. LEMRALINA's İ. Başbuğ was shown a yellow card after 19 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Caótico were forced into a substitution as N. Sina couldn't continue due to some rough treatment, forcing V. Werneck to come in off the bench. 25 minutes into the match, J. Rato came through the middle and almost added to his team's lead, but the shot went wide. V. Werneck did not have a good day today, often losing his footing on the muddy pitch. The muddy pitch made the game a gritty affair, which seemed to suit S. Pantić just fine. It was 0 - 1 at the break. Possession in this half belonged to Caótico, who controlled the ball 53 percent of the time.

51 minutes in, LEMRALINA's W. Rooks received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. With the scoreboard showing that 53 minutes had been played, Caótico nearly put themselves up another goal after T. Kattenberg came through on the left. Fortunately for the home crowd, the keeper made the save. After 56 minutes of play, İ. Başbuğ equalised for LEMRALINA after an elegant attack from the right. Caótico's J. Rato managed to lose the defenders as he advanced down the right wing and scored, putting the visitors ahead after 57 minutes. 1 - 2. LEMRALINA's H. Boesen skillfully knocked a pass over the top after 76 minutes, and that was received by W. Rooks who just managed to slot it past the opposing goalkeeper for 2 - 2. LEMRALINA took the lead 77 minutes into the game by 3 - 2, as H. Boesen elegantly received a long range pass through the middle, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. Neither team was controlling the possession at this point in the match, with the stats showing a 50:50 split.

LEMRALINA's best player was T. Alvensleben-Schönborn. On the other hand, H. Boesen's play was disheartening. S. Pantić performed admirably for Caótico. V. Werneck was a disappointment, however. The match ends 3 - 2.
