bastardi mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. G. Elets caused the crowd to go mental with his goal up the middle after 11 minutes. This gave bastardi the 1 - 0 lead. bastardi players heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their wing attacks to the middle instead. bastardi's E. Brancis saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 12 minutes. 33 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as K. Taganov broke through, making the score 2 - 0 for bastardi. 2 - 0 was the halftime score. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by bastardi, with 61 percent of the ball.

With 49 minutes played, bastardi put themselves up 3 - 0 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to Z. Barkāns, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. With 66 minutes played, G. Võsu of Tiger fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. 69 minutes into the match, J. Kylén could have extended the lead, but his powerful free kick went just over the bar. Cheers filled the stadium as K. Taganov broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 4 - 0 to bastardi. Confident in their lead, bastardi's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. G. Võsu received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly 82 minutes into the match, probably out of lack of experience, and almost let an opponent score. Central attacks were the recipe of the day for bastardi, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity. After 86 minutes, a couple of quick and successful challenges followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area by E. Brancis might have resulted in another goal for bastardi. However, C. Climent made a spectacular save. bastardi had most of the ball, with 69 percent of possession.

The most dominating bastardi player was without a doubt K. Taganov. On the other hand, K. Vītiņš's play was disheartening. Tiger's top performer was clearly M. Grīnfelds. However, N. Tranchese made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 4 - 0.
