Pokerheaven were mostly trying to use their skill at attacking on the flanks. After 19 minutes, Pokerheaven were awarded a free kick. Rather than shooting straight at goal, the taker went for an indirect variant which seemed to take his team mates a bit by surprise. D. Montal did attempt a finish, but from an awkward position, sending the ball into the away fans. 34 minutes in, Pokerheaven's F. Reifschneider received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. A lunatic dribble by E. Emrich, in front of his own keeper, set up drughi_viking_JUVE's H. Tischer for an embarrassingly easy strike after 38 minutes. 1 - 0! It was 1 - 0 at the break. Pokerheaven had most of the ball, with 67 percent of possession.

The crowd was silenced 66 minutes into the match as the visiting team's D. Montal came in from the left, levelling the score to 1 - 1. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave M. Estela from Pokerheaven a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 67 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! In a fantastic display of determination, drughi_viking_JUVE's D. Vúzharov forced himself to his feet, after an opponent viciously knocked him down. Pokerheaven's E. Emrich left the field after 76 minutes because of a nasty blow to the shin. His replacement was R. Nägeli. Possession in this half belonged to Pokerheaven, who controlled the ball 65 percent of the time.

drughi_viking_JUVE's best player was D. Mattana. L. Plancke was a disappointment, however. Most important Pokerheaven player was F. Reifschneider. On the other hand, M. Marzo's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 1.
