KassaDube started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. They fielded: Bralski - Bojsen, Vlad, Paravagna - Henstock, Aarola, Joosten, Bladfeldt, Albach - Pérez, Florizoone.

Today, KassaDube's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. Stafi's V. Paroli tried to break through in the middle repeatedly, but couldn't get past the visitors' defenders. After 16 minutes, T. Stoichitã came in from the right, feinted, then sped past the off-balance defender to make the score 1 - 0, giving Stafi the lead. A great save by keeper K. Bralski after 19 minutes kept the visitors in the game after L. Qiang Dong struck from the left with a real cannonball. 30 minutes into the game, A. Bodurksi had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came Y. Afşar. D. Kor was handed the Stafi captain's armband. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 0. Possession in this half belonged to Stafi, who controlled the ball 61 percent of the time.

L. Qiang Dong wanted to play on, but the Stafi coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 65 minutes into the game by J. Solheim. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. B. Linkov squirmed through their central defence after 73 minutes, increasing the lead to 2 - 0. KassaDube's defence sent a ball soaring up the middle on a beautiful counterattack with 78 minutes gone, but A. Vlad's finish was met by the reaching hands of the keeper. S. Amarelle unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. With 83 minutes played, T. Florizoone had a fantastic opportunity to reply but his shot flew harmlessly into the side-netting of the goal. 84 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as B. Gidziński broke through, making the score 3 - 0 for Stafi. At this point, it was obvious that the players of Stafi lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Stafi, with 63 percent of the ball.

Stafi's best player was B. Gidziński. J. Solheim turned in a dismal performance, however. KassaDube's top performer was clearly L. Pérez. On the other hand, M. Aarola's play was disheartening. The match ends 3 - 0.
