Eleanor21 saw most attack opportunities on the wings. Grandequipa's R. Fávero could have put the guests one up after 29 minutes after chasing a through ball from the right, but H. Sabino was as fast as a snake, grabbing the ball from under his nose. 40 minutes into the game, Grandequipa wanted to bring some new energy to their game. T. Choladze gave H. Rocha a quick hug as he left the field. Eleanor21 had a good opportunity to attack in the middle, but remembered their instructions to focus on wing attacks instead. I. Tikouncha delivered a good free kick from an excellent position 41 minutes into the game, but luck wasn't on Grandequipa's side this time and the ball went wide. It was 0 - 0 at the break. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Grandequipa, with 58 percent of the ball.

Down the middle came A. Højgaard, making a fantastic play that nearly had Grandequipa take the lead after 59 minutes, but H. Sabino preserved the tie. T. Bryld fired a shot from distance after 76 minutes, but the long shot couldn't find the net for Grandequipa. A free kick aimed at the keeper's far post almost gave Grandequipa the lead 83 minutes in, but the ball just wasn't able to squirm its way through the defensive wall. After 88 minutes, Grandequipa put themselves up 0 - 1, as I. Tikouncha finished off a strike from the left with a real cannonball of a shot. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, M. Soligon got himself booked. The manager of Eleanor21 was not happy. The rain made it hard for players like M. Kotyza to show their technical control of the ball on this soggy day. Grandequipa claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 54 percent.

Eleanor21's best player was G. Vossius. On the other hand, A. Õis's play was disheartening. The most dominating Grandequipa player was without a doubt R. Fávero. A. Højgaard turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 0 - 1.
