Today, Koolraap's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. 1 minutes into the match, the follis manager wanted to try a new tactic, and the players loyally obliged. Koolraap had a good opportunity to attack in the middle, but remembered their instructions to focus on wing attacks instead. Koolraap had a good opportunity to take the lead as M. Sané came up the left side, but he struck the ball weakly and it went straight into the arms of P. Garrafa. There was concern in the stands when, at the 33 minute mark, Koolraap's L. Guilmot hit the ground hard, but he refused the attention of the trainer and rejoined his teammates on the pitch. Given a free kick close to the byline, Koolraap tried a move that loyal fans may recognise from training. A pass to the side pulled the defence out of position which let C. Boitor slip through on goal. He didn't have to break his stride, and slipped the ball past the keeper to make it 1 - 0, 37 minutes into the game. Koolraap's E. Savtur showed his experience after 43 minutes, as he expertly set himself up to take advantage of a rebound off the crossbar, but his shot was tipped harmlessly out of the way. It was 1 - 0 at the break. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Koolraap, with 51 percent of the ball.

The Koolraap free kick 51 minutes into the match seemed wasted, as the shot was both short and off target. But was this actually a plan? The ball landed at the feet of L. Guilmot, who was completely unmarked in the box. That's 2 - 0! 59 minutes in, Koolraap's J. Revel received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Koolraap put themselves up 3 - 0 when G. Hachmann broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. A great save by keeper P. Garrafa after 77 minutes kept the visitors in the game after T. Badale struck from the left with a real cannonball. Koolraap claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 51 percent.

The most dominating Koolraap player was without a doubt G. Hachmann. However, R. Schünemann made a disastrous appearance. B. Sörensson performed admirably for follis. J. Chávez on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 3 - 0.
