Celtic-Glasgow had most of the ball, with 53 percent of possession.

With 46 minutes played, the Kust coach decided a substitution may help turn the game around. L. Docq came on, M. Fontaine had to leave the fray. Although the whole team were struggling to impress, Kust's G. Sanchez was singled out as being the problem as he was called off the pitch after 46 minutes. A. Dhaeze was given a chance to change things around. After 46 minutes, Kust switched C. Krimou with M. Thorrez, hoping for a quick impact on the pitch. Celtic-Glasgow put in a good effort on the right, but C. Gironde saw his volley fly wide of the mark 51 minutes into the game. C. Gourdet had a fantastic opportunity to put Celtic-Glasgow up another goal 67 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. The home team will be cursing L. Docq for weeks; he finished off a great pass from the left, knocking it past the keeper without a problem. The match was level at 3 - 3 after 76 minutes. The celebrations in the stands could only mean one thing - C. Stadelmann's free kick had found the back of the net and put Celtic-Glasgow ahead 4 - 3! Possession in this half belonged to Celtic-Glasgow, who controlled the ball 58 percent of the time.

Most important Celtic-Glasgow player was S. Kascha. On the other hand, M. Fröber's play was disheartening. Kust's top performer was clearly A. Dhaeze. H. Goetschalckx was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 3.
