62635 spectators had come to The Thunder Stadium this cloudy day. Fonne Etienne was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Franziskus Rydiker and Ghindã-Nicolae Antonescu. A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Gundala. The following players took the field: Romansyah - Mérot, Deyres, Pulli - Rashit, Dwindana, Kaiser, Buffel, Buhaiu - De Saeger, Swärdby.

Juventus tactics involved an interesting 5-4-1 combination. Lineup: Everling - Risdianto, Kusmiyanto, Yusran, Auri, Lewono - Voss, Yusuf, Focşeneanu, Phata - Arnata.

Juventus were relying on their ability to counter-attack. S. Phata came close to putting the visiting team one up 30 minutes into the match, following a solo raid down the middle, but Y. Romansyah managed to tip the ball to a corner. N. Kusmiyanto of Juventus was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. 41 minutes into the match, Gundala's D. Swärdby demonstrated his famed speed as he raced past his marker and passed the ball to J. De Saeger who chipped it in for 1 - 0. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Gundala to 2 - 0 as J. De Saeger finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. With 43 minutes played, Gundala's J. De Saeger almost extended the lead, but his shot from the left glanced off the top of the bar to fall behind the net. After 44 minutes Juventus tried to exploit their counterattacking skills, unfortunately, E. Arnata's shot sailed wide after his break down the right. 2 - 0 was the score after the first half. Gundala claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 74 percent.

The bench was restless, and with 55 minutes passed Juventus's coach gave M. Maryono the opportunity the player had been hoping for. S. Yusuf reluctantly left the field. After 55 minutes, Juventus switched S. Phata with R. Matulessy, hoping for a quick impact on the pitch. E. Arnata was the new captain of Juventus - handed the armband by the departing player. After 55 minutes, Juventus used a short break in the game to take new instructions from their coach. Gundala increased the lead as J. De Saeger struck to make the score 3 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. By then J. De Saeger had scored three goals - a hat trick! Confident in their lead, Gundala's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. 76 minutes into the game, A. Voss had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came A. Loekito. O. Pulli wanted to play on, but the Gundala coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 80 minutes into the game by D. Matos. The Gundala coach was visibly pleased with the score so far, but still ordered a few tactical changes 80 minutes into the game. With 82 minutes played, Gundala put themselves up 4 - 0 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to A. Deyres, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. After 83 minutes, a deliberate handball from Juventus's N. Kusmiyanto was judged to be his second bookable offence, and he was sent off. After 84 minutes Juventus's P. Focşeneanu limped slightly after a late challenge, but he was able to continue. R. Rashit could have put Gundala up one more, but he fired into the side netting after breaking free on the left after 86 minutes. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Gundala, with 79 percent of the ball.

Gundala's top performer was clearly D. Swärdby. G. Buffel was a disappointment, however. M. Maryono performed admirably for Juventus. However, J. Lewono made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 4 - 0.
