For their match strategy, BILL had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. Thranow mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. After 14 minutes, BILL's W. Erdmann swiftly ran past N. Voldbirk and nutmegged the keeper! 1 - 0. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 0. Possession in this half belonged to BILL, who controlled the ball 52 percent of the time.

With 66 minutes gone, Thranow had a free kick in a decent position. Despite this being a great chance for a shot, they tried a cheeky move intended to bypass the defence. However, N. Falch Andersen did not manage to connect with it cleanly and the ball went out. R. Seccia was called on to replace Thranow's N. Falch Andersen after 71 minutes following a nasty collision. With 76 minutes played, BILL put themselves up 2 - 0 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to W. Erdmann, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. Having been awarded a free kick in an awkward position after 78 minutes, BILL did not go for a shot but instead fired the ball hard into the 6 yard box. After a brief tussle with his marker, W. Erdmann was able to power the ball past the keeper to make the score 3 - 0. This third goal completed a hattrick for W. Erdmann. Confident in their lead, BILL's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. BILL claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 55 percent.

W. Erdmann performed admirably for BILL. J. Elm turned in a dismal performance, however. Most important Thranow player was R. Seccia. On the other hand, Å. Lübek's play was disheartening. The match ends 3 - 0.
