Gravelneck started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Popa - Buess, Generes, Bordi - Butrimavičius, Rautiala, Rindlisbacher, Hortêncio, Martínez - De Hont, Olofsson.

A. Gast gave Lagerplatz the lead as he successfully challenged the guests' central defenders, then slotted the ball into the bottom corner, giving the keeper no chance. 1 - 0 After 13 minutes Gravelneck's J. Butrimavičius had to be carried off on a stretcher in agony. R. Babiel came in to replace him. With 28 minutes played, A. Gast of Lagerplatz fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. R. Babiel tied the game at 1 - 1 after 35 minutes, when he converted an incredible pass from the right. Some quick footwork on the left side of the field 40 minutes into the match left Gravelneck's P. Buess completely free to score. 1 - 2 for the visitors. The referee showed Lagerplatz's C. Tzschoppe the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Halftime score was 1 - 2. Lagerplatz enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 55 percent of possession.

The Gravelneck players could smell victory in the air. T. Hortêncio wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for C. Lieberherr after 46 minutes. Lagerplatz's E. Berretta was shown a yellow card after 64 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Lagerplatz will have to do without I. Onken for a time, due to a bad foot injury at the 72 minute mark. He was substituted by K. Henriksson. After a scuffle in the guests' penalty area 74 minutes into the game, the home team was awarded a penalty. R. Luchsinger scored to make it 2 - 2. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave X. Padró from Lagerplatz a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 78 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! Lagerplatz created a good opportunity to score 80 minutes into the match when R. Altorfer's hooked ball from the left created a scuffle in front of the goal, and the visitors' defenders had a hard time clearing the ball. 81 minutes into the game, C. Lieberherr had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came L. Papalia. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Lagerplatz, with 67 percent of the ball.

Lagerplatz's best player was R. Luchsinger. C. Tzschoppe was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Gravelneck player was without a doubt M. Olofsson. R. Babiel turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 2 - 2.
