For their match strategy, 0blivion had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. J. Yli spent most of the time in a heap on the ground today, his normally rapid movement hindered by the slippery pitch. 0blivion broke through on the left 25 minutes into the game, with I. Bonacin firing in from an acute angle to give the home side a 1 - 0 lead. 0blivion's C. Galloni swung in a good chance from the left, but the visitors' defence were able to clear the ball. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in 0blivion's C. Galloni increasing the lead to 2 - 0. 2 - 0 was the halftime score. 0blivion enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 60 percent of possession.

In the lead, 0blivion adjusted their style of play with 46 minutes gone. 0blivion increased the lead as S. Välimäki struck to make the score 3 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. The 0blivion coach was visibly pleased with the score so far, but still ordered a few tactical changes 61 minutes into the game. Q. Laurent left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 65 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. P. Mazzuoccolo was the replacement. The 0blivion captaincy was handed to P. Mazzuoccolo. P. Milkert could have put 0blivion up one more, but he fired into the side netting after breaking free on the left after 66 minutes. 73 minutes into the game, 0blivion seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a poor level of organisation. L. Mertens dispatched a majestic long shot 74 minutes into the match, but missed the goal by a few metres. With the clock showing 76 minutes played, a great pass from the defensive line of 0blivion resulted in a counterattack that was smoothly brought under control by P. Schoenfeld in the centre of the opposition's penalty area, but his finish went high. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Hurdur, with 53 percent of the ball.

Most important 0blivion player was P. Schoenfeld. T. Parkkonen turned in a dismal performance, however. The most dominating Hurdur player was without a doubt T. Kalliomaa. M. Koppanen on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 3 - 0.
