Kratos mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. Guttene's G. Hansen could have put the guests one up after 8 minutes after chasing a through ball from the right, but V. Fedorenko was as fast as a snake, grabbing the ball from under his nose. The visiting A. Singh was booed thoroughly by the home crowd 17 minutes into the game, after he broke through the middle and scored, resulting in the visitors taking the lead. 0 - 1 was the score. G. Hansen of Guttene received a yellow card after 23 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Guttene increased their lead after 34 minutes when R. Jensen broke through on the right, upping the score to 0 - 2, much to the home crowd's dismay. What ever got into O. Henriksen, the crowd mumbled, as he suddenly struck a cross pass through his own defence - ending up right in front of Guttene's O. Folkestad, who easily put the ball away for 0 - 3 after 36 minutes. After 38 minutes, Guttene's O. Folkestad burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 4. Confident in their lead, Guttene's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. A. Moen of Guttene received a yellow card after 39 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. 0 - 4 was the halftime score. Guttene claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 64 percent.

The visitors' K. Fagernes took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 59 minutes into the match. 0 - 5 for Guttene. O. Folkestad could have put his team up another goal 75 minutes into the game, after a rush down the left, but his closing shot hit the post. Guttene enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 66 percent of possession.

J. Johnsen performed admirably for Kratos. O. Henriksen turned in a dismal performance, however. K. Fagernes performed admirably for Guttene. G. Hansen turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 0 - 5.
