The weather was pretty good, and a crowd of 32622 had shown up at FeaR ColiSSeuM for the match. Miguel Juan Pérez was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Siegbert Weiss and Nektarios Stefanis. PuSh-it tactics involved an interesting 3-4-3 combination. They fielded: Calarco - Borel, Llambias, Jurovčák - Mobilia, Ostrovski, Rullmann, Gaisita - Białous, Pérez Diaz, Babyshev.

lucia had chosen a strategic 3-4-2 formation. The following players took the field: Handy - Bocco, Herdam, De Maio - Iliev, Cabus, Parada, Severin - Nikolov, Torgren.

PuSh-it mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. J. Białous gave PuSh-it the lead as he successfully challenged the guests' central defenders, then slotted the ball into the bottom corner, giving the keeper no chance. 1 - 0 After 30 minutes, there was a bit of a mixup on the field as lucia found themselves out of position and their organisation level dropped to poor. 33 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as J. Białous broke through, making the score 2 - 0 for PuSh-it. Confident in their lead, PuSh-it's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. 40 minutes in, lucia's E. Bocco received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Cheers filled the stadium as G. Babyshev broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 3 - 0 to PuSh-it. PuSh-it had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle attacks. PuSh-it solidified their lead at the 43 minute mark, as N. Pérez Diaz dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 4 - 0. 4 - 0 was the score after the first half. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by PuSh-it, with 71 percent of the ball.

A review of the gameplan helped lucia get back to a passable organisation when the referee blew his whistle again. 65 minutes into the game, lucia seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a poor level of organisation. What ever got into W. Rullmann, the crowd mumbled, as he suddenly struck a cross pass through his own defence - ending up right in front of lucia's S. Nikolov, who easily put the ball away for 4 - 1 after 66 minutes. It was obvious that team PuSh-it had instructions to attack in the middle instead of on the wings. Central attacks were the recipe of the day for PuSh-it, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity. N. Pérez Diaz could have increased the lead after 81 minutes, but his shot hit the post after a nice combination in the middle of the park. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in PuSh-it's L. Gaisita increasing the lead to 5 - 1. Cheers filled the stadium as G. Babyshev broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 6 - 1 to PuSh-it. PuSh-it had most of the ball, with 68 percent of possession.

The most dominating PuSh-it player was without a doubt J. Białous. V. Mobilia was a disappointment, however. lucia's top performer was clearly M. Torgren. P. Parada turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 6 - 1.
