The terraces were silenced after 5 minutes when Selandrio's G. Gasperas put the guests ahead 0 - 1, following an attack on the right. After 14 minutes of game time, P. Agostino had an excellent opportunity to add to the visitors' lead, clipping a volley hooked in from the right, but V. de Mingo was in the right place and tipped the ball over for a corner. C. Testino received a delicate pass through the home side's central defence after 21 minutes, and chipped it past the flailing keeper to score making it 0 - 2. The Selandrio fans went wild, whilst the home fans started to think about leaving early. Selandrio's S. Delonge made it through the home team's defence on the right hand side 26 minutes into the match. After rounding the keeper, he only had to place the ball in the unguarded goal when a defender slid in and cleared the ball off the line. 29 minutes into the game, skinnys had difficulty finding their positions and their organisation dropped to inadequate. After 35 minutes, there was a bit of a mixup on the field as skinnys found themselves out of position and their organisation level dropped to inadequate. 0 - 2 was the halftime score. Possession in this half belonged to Selandrio, who controlled the ball 72 percent of the time.

A review of the gameplan helped skinnys get back to a solid organisation when the referee blew his whistle again. After the ball was lifted in from the left, S. Haj-Hamdan was on his own in the home side's penalty area and should have scored after 50 minutes, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration. 77 minutes into the game, skinnys seemed a little tentative in their play as their organization fell to weak. skinnys's V. de Mingo had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 78 minutes having been played. A. van Katwijk was the replacement. It wasn't a good day at all for A. Augusto. His powerful style of play just didn't fit the bill on this warm day. S. Borz increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 3. After 87 minutes of play, the free-spirited T. Wafelbakker decided to go for goal as he struck the ball from the corner of the pitch. The ball hit a defender in the face and bounced out of play. After 88 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed S. Borz to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 0 - 4. After this, you could see that the players of Selandrio were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. 88 minutes into the game, skinnys seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a poor level of organisation. Selandrio claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 70 percent.

The most dominating skinnys player was without a doubt L. Tejero. However, A. van Katwijk made a disastrous appearance. S. Haj-Hamdan performed admirably for Selandrio. On the other hand, G. Gasperas's play was disheartening. The match ends 0 - 4.
