The crowd of 47869 turning up at

The following players had been chosen: Hagedorn - Sanguanini, Goacona, Csordás - Brøchner, Pisca, Prandini, Muñoz Ramos, Sepsey - Stössel, Kalvach.

B. Bitomský who shuffled it past the keeper. The score was now 1 - 0.
19 minutes into the game, Polešovice were awarded a penalty that
B. Bitomský turned into 2 - 0 without a problem.
N. Kollert received some harsh words from his coach after he acted foolishly 22 minutes into the match, probably out of lack of experience, and almost let an opponent score.
After 28 minutes,
J. Ježdík put Polešovice ahead 3 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing.
Polešovice's
B. Bitomský struck his penalty well enough to beat the goalkeeper and extend the home team's lead to 4 - 0 after 29 minutes.
This third goal completed a hattrick for
B. Bitomský.
At this point, it was obvious that the players of Polešovice lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented.
After 31 minutes,
B. Bitomský sent the corner kick right to
I. Vitík who headed it sharply past the keeper. 5 - 0!
Polešovice's
B. Jůna increased the lead to 6 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 33 minutes.
I. Vitík of Polešovice received a yellow card after 34 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour.
Halftime score was 6 - 0.
Polešovice had most of the ball, with 60 percent of possession.
Polešovice managed to extend their lead to 7 - 0 when
B. Jůna cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper.
Polešovice's
N. Kollert swung in a good chance from the left, but the visitors' defence were able to clear the ball.
With 53 minutes played,
R. Kaiser could have brought this one home for Polešovice as he charged up on the left, but his hooked ball went just a bit too high.
Polešovice put themselves up 8 - 0 when
B. Bitomský broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake.
Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Polešovice, with 64 percent of the ball.
Polešovice's best player was
B. Bitomský.
N. Kollert turned in a dismal performance, however.

S. Muñoz Ramos.
On the other hand,
G. Hagedorn's play was disheartening.
The match ends 8 - 0.
