For their match strategy, Krazzer had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. Given a free kick close to the byline, bøller tried a move that loyal fans may recognise from training. A pass to the side pulled the defence out of position which let M. Jari slip through on goal. He didn't have to break his stride, and slipped the ball past the keeper to make it 1 - 0, 4 minutes into the game. With 12 minutes played, V. Volokhonskiy of Krazzer fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. Krazzer had a great opportunity to score following a counterattack after 22 minutes, but L. Kość's shot from the left sailed high over the bar. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave L. Birkelund from Krazzer a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 24 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! F. Haimerl was the unlucky victim and couldn't continue the game, so bøller's V. Caspersen had to come off the bench. bøller increased the lead as J. Nygård struck to make the score 2 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. 28 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as T. Sparre broke through, making the score 3 - 0 for bøller. When L. Birkelund made yet another studs-first tackle after 29 minutes, the referee was obliged to book the Krazzer player for the second time, sending him off the pitch. bøller were forced into a substitution as N. Stana couldn't continue due to some rough treatment, forcing R. Roodakker to come in off the bench. 3 - 0 was the halftime score. bøller had most of the ball, with 70 percent of possession.

Still ahead in the game after 54 minutes, bøller made some tactical adjustments. M. Lindby and T. Størum swapped positions. A great save by keeper K. Kalmer after 61 minutes kept the visitors in the game after M. Jari struck from the left with a real cannonball. Good work by the Krazzer defensive line after 67 minutes produced a good counterattack chance, which cut elegantly down the middle of the pitch and found S. Aiello alone in front of the goal, but his shot whistled just wide. Krazzer's N. Sunal got himself booked for a foul. M. Lindby of bøller had to be helped off the pitch as an injury meant he was unable to finish the game. A. Domínguez came in to finish the match. J. Nygård had a fantastic opportunity to put bøller up another goal 71 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. D. Czekal could have increased the lead after 72 minutes, but his shot hit the post after a nice combination in the middle of the park. Krazzer's defence sent a ball soaring up the middle on a beautiful counterattack with 75 minutes gone, but L. Kość's finish was met by the reaching hands of the keeper. bøller enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 72 percent of possession.

Most important bøller player was M. Jari. A. Domínguez was a disappointment, however. S. Aiello performed admirably for Krazzer. K. Kalmer turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 3 - 0.
