Mauri of schwäichfläsche was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. One of many good crosses from S. Mauri on the wing was received and skillfully taken care of by E. Luginbühl, who scored for schwäichfläsche. 1 - 1 seba66's F. Renaut tried to break through in the middle repeatedly, but couldn't get past the visitors' defenders. 1 - 1 was the halftime score. seba66 claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 73 percent.

Buisson after a determined run through the middle. 76 minutes in, schwäichfläsche's G. Hecker received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Due to a severely mistimed tackle, R.
