A brilliantly sunny day had enticed a crowd of 12000 to Filadelfia. George Mercado was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Damien Vacheron and Hélder Fernandes. Bull started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Balassone - Filomarino, Begnoni, Gemello, Alvino - Nappi, Palandri, Varela, Costella - Arturo, Mazzolini.

avenza had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. Starters: Mãrgãrit - Conserva, Caltabiano, Bagnoli - Pimpo, Marascalchi, Lattuada, Tornatore, Cellemme - Fortarezza, Stagi.

It was obvious that avenza were using their pressing skill as their primary tactic. Some quick footwork on the left side of the field 13 minutes into the match left avenza's G. Fortarezza completely free to score. 0 - 1 for the visitors. After 27 minutes, an incisive pass through the middle gave G. Tornatore a chance to increase the lead for avenza, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 0 - 2. After this, you could see that the players of avenza were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. After 28 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for G. Fortarezza who increased avenza's lead to 0 - 3. 31 minutes into the game, avenza had difficulty finding their positions and their organisation dropped to inadequate. M. Balassone got a fingertip on A. Bagnoli's shot from the left 34 minutes in, and managed to keep the visitors from going up another goal. Halftime score was 0 - 3. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by avenza, with 73 percent of the ball.

The avenza players spent the break getting a rerun of the team's tactical organisation and regained a solid organisation when the game started again. A. Marascalchi wanted to play on, but the avenza coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 46 minutes into the game by T. Svendsen. G. Tornatore left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 50 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. Ž. Dabašauskas was the replacement. G. Fortarezza could have put his team up another goal 58 minutes into the game, after a rush down the left, but his closing shot hit the post. 59 minutes into the match, the visitors put themselves ahead 0 - 4 as M. Stagi finished off an attack from the left with a spectacular scissors kick. With 62 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed A. Bagnoli of avenza to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 0 - 5. 76 minutes into the game, avenza worked the left side industriously creating several opportunities to add to their lead, but just couldn't apply the finishing touch. With 77 minutes played, A. Filomarino of Bull fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. A. Cellemme hit the corner kick straight to the keeper, but it was mishandled, giving avenza's M. Stagi an easy chance to knock it in for 0 - 6. L. Conserva received a delicate pass through the home side's central defence after 84 minutes, and chipped it past the flailing keeper to score making it 0 - 7. The avenza fans went wild, whilst the home fans started to think about leaving early. 85 minutes into the game, avenza seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a solid level of organisation. Possession in this half belonged to avenza, who controlled the ball 85 percent of the time.

Most important Bull player was A. Mazzolini. R. Begnoni on the other hand, had a terrible day. avenza's best player was Ž. Dabašauskas. However, A. Bagnoli made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 7.
