Using their counter-attacking abilities was the strategy of choice for RDNT. With 10 minutes played, G. Tron of aldebaran fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. After 12 minutes of play, L. den Elzen gave the home team a 1 - 0 lead after an attack coming in from the right. 22 minutes into the game, RDNT seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a inadequate level of organisation. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, G. Leuzzi got himself booked. The manager of aldebaran was not happy. K. Kostura could have put aldebaran up one more, but he fired into the side netting after breaking free on the left after 29 minutes. With 30 minutes gone, J. Höwt suddenly found himself completely free on the right wing when a counterattack by RDNT caught their opponents by surprise. Only a great save by the opposing keeper prevented him from scoring. With 37 minutes played, aldebaran's B. Édouard almost extended the lead, but his shot from the left glanced off the top of the bar to fall behind the net. 1 - 0 was the halftime score. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by aldebaran, with 87 percent of the ball.

A review of the gameplan helped RDNT get back to a solid organisation when the referee blew his whistle again. A great save by keeper È. Clota after 50 minutes kept the visitors in the game after K. Kostura struck from the left with a real cannonball. Having turned the direction of play quickly, the RDNT counter attack ended as the ball carrier was brought down violently by a defender after 51 minutes. The resulting free kick was a flat shot into the area just in front of the keeper. However, the defence were on their toes and did not allow the opponents to reach the ball. E. Toftvang left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 65 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. F. Banchero was the replacement. 70 minutes in, RDNT appeared unsure on how to play and their organisation was only inadequate. aldebaran's F. Banchero swung in a good chance from the left, but the visitors' defence were able to clear the ball. The referee showed RDNT's N. Oßwald the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. aldebaran were forced into a substitution as D. Charbonnier couldn't continue due to some rough treatment, forcing Z. Nafti to come in off the bench. With 82 minutes played, K. Kostura could have brought this one home for aldebaran as he charged up on the left, but his hooked ball went just a bit too high. T. Israël increased the lead for aldebaran to 2 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! After 87 minutes, J. Breton put aldebaran ahead 3 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. aldebaran enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 89 percent of possession.

aldebaran's top performer was clearly K. Kostura. On the other hand, Z. Nafti's play was disheartening. The most dominating RDNT player was without a doubt M. Gartler. However, M. Mustafayev made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 3 - 0.
