The 2319 fans in attendance at BETONOWY CYC were roasting in the hot sun. Inozens Lille was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Kaspar Mildenberger and Santiago Ortiz. BETONKI started off with a 2-5-3 lineup. The following players took the field: Noyman - Andruszko, Haratym - Skwirowski, Pietrzak, Broen, Urzędowski, Dutkowski - Dul, Ciołkowski, Bartkowski.

BARCAFUN had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Cabezas - Valadeiro, Zvity, Bernholz, Burke-Walz - Martínez Campos, Zergün, Fiad, Urso - Sevük, Ullemeyer.

BARCAFUN used their ability to concentrate their attacks in the middle of the pitch, rather than on the wings. 1 minutes into the game, BARCAFUN wanted to bring some new energy to their game. S. Sevük gave R. Biszczanik a quick hug as he left the field. D. Ullemeyer was handed the BARCAFUN captain's armband. After 16 minutes, there was a bit of a mixup on the field as BETONKI found themselves out of position and their organisation level dropped to wretched. It was obvious that team BARCAFUN had instructions to attack in the middle instead of on the wings. Down the middle came R. Biszczanik, making a fantastic play that nearly had BARCAFUN take the lead after 20 minutes, but R. Noyman preserved the tie. The visiting D. Ullemeyer was booed thoroughly by the home crowd 29 minutes into the game, after he broke through the middle and scored, resulting in the visitors taking the lead. 0 - 1 was the score. BARCAFUN were determined to attack in the middle, even their wing attacks ended up centrally. The visitors' D. Ullemeyer took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 30 minutes into the match. 0 - 2 for BARCAFUN. BARCAFUN had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle attacks. After 38 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for S. Valadeiro who increased BARCAFUN's lead to 0 - 3. It was 0 - 3 at the break. BARCAFUN had most of the ball, with 59 percent of possession.

The coach gave his players an extra tactical briefing during the break, and after that BETONKI had passable organisation. F. Bernholz increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 4. BARCAFUN players heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their wing attacks to the middle instead. A marvellous BETONKI effort on the right-hand side resulted in a goal after 64 minutes by P. Bartkowski, making the score 1 - 4. The coach of BARCAFUN was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 65 minutes, D. Vögele came on for J. Fiad. K. Zergün 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. V. Nahit was the replacement. Several players seemed a little dazed by the warm weather, and were repeatedly tricked by the clever and agile L. Skwirowski. Usually a powerful player on the field, A. Urso looked kind of pale and tired under the hot sun. 82 minutes into the game, BETONKI had difficulty finding their positions and their organisation dropped to inadequate. BARCAFUN enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 53 percent of possession.

BETONKI's top performer was clearly A. Broen. On the other hand, R. Noyman's play was disheartening. R. Biszczanik performed admirably for BARCAFUN. However, S. Valadeiro made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 1 - 4.
