Stoke increased the lead as G. Constantin struck to make the score 2 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper.

Sevdil almost managed to score another goal for Stoke, but his header was tipped over the bar by the visitors' keeper. V. Grobov unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. The home side failed to add to their score as H. Schregg shot a penalty wide after 35 minutes. After 36 minutes rekrutter tried to exploit their counterattacking skills, unfortunately, M. Lykke's shot sailed wide after his break down the right. It was 2 - 0 at the break.

Groenenberg came close to extending the lead 53 minutes into the game. His shot came in from the right hand side but A. Pessa managed to save it with an unbelievable reaction stop. rekrutter mounted an inspired counterattack down the right wing after 54 minutes, but N. Åhstål was unable to convert from short range. The Stoke players could smell victory in the air. A. Groenenberg wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for D. Gross after 62 minutes. V. Grobov could have increased the lead after 71 minutes, but his shot hit the post after a nice combination in the middle of the park. Stoke solidified their lead at the 77 minute mark, as M. Bøge dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 3 - 0. Stoke's N. Sevdil was shown a yellow card after 78 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Stoke's C. Veth got himself booked for a foul. Due to a severely mistimed tackle, N. Åhstål of rekrutter spent some time on the grass writhing in agony before he could get up and continue the game. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Stoke, with 66 percent of the ball.
