Clouds darkened the skies at No hay CiNa!!! as 14452 spectators turned up for the match. Nikita Kopp was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Dries Molenaar and Ctibor Váňa.

Razors started off with a 5-5-0 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Itruburu - 清盛 (Qingsheng) , Buñuel, Stenfors, Zamorategi, Gianangeli - Efremov, Barragán, Ficht, Jari, Leclerc -.

Using their counter-attacking abilities was the strategy of choice for Razors. Inquide took the lead after 14 minutes as a result of J. Samieske's peach of a shot from the right hand side of the box - placed beautifully in the top corner. 1 - 0. M. Zamorategi behaved like an inexperienced youth player after 22 minutes as he gave the ball away to R. Decamps. Lucky for him though, there was no goal. Good work by the Razors defensive line after 25 minutes produced a good counterattack chance, which cut elegantly down the middle of the pitch and found L. Jari alone in front of the goal, but his shot whistled just wide. With 30 minutes played, J. Igartua could have brought this one home for Inquide as he charged up on the left, but his hooked ball went just a bit too high. With 35 minutes gone, M. Zamorategi suddenly found himself completely free on the right wing when a counterattack by Razors caught their opponents by surprise. Only a great save by the opposing keeper prevented him from scoring. It was 1 - 0 at the break. Inquide enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 92 percent of possession.

J. Samieske's early cross saw the defenders caught out of position and the alert R. Deleanu was able to pounce and roll the ball past the hapless goalkeeper to score for Inquide. 2 - 0. Inquide put themselves up 3 - 0 when P. Massone broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. By now, the players in Inquide felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. Inquide's G. Ceneda refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 72 minutes. Inquide's S. Sahlgren got himself booked for a foul. Unfortunately for Razors, F. Gianangeli was injured when the game became more physical, and he had to leave the field. F. Thellier replaced him. Inquide's P. Massone saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 80 minutes. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Inquide's R. Deleanu increasing the lead to 4 - 0. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Inquide to 5 - 0 as R. Decamps finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. C. Veselinov increased the lead for Inquide to 6 - 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! Razors's P. Leclerc left the field after 87 minutes because of a nasty blow to the shin. His replacement was É. Grosjean. Inquide claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 94 percent.

Inquide's best player was R. Decamps. On the other hand, R. Llutart's play was disheartening. Razors's top performer was clearly V. Buñuel. C. Ficht turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 6 - 0.
