Nørgaard came close to extending the lead 19 minutes into the game. His shot came in from the right hand side but R. Liesmonas managed to save it with an unbelievable reaction stop. After 23 minutes, a couple of quick and successful challenges followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area by G. Seres might have resulted in another goal for slavia. However, R. Liesmonas made a spectacular save. With 24 minutes gone, a long pass from the defence of Drsňáci resulted in a counterattack that set F. Pennati free through the middle, but the keeper made a spectacular diving save. V. Gorički increased the lead for slavia to 3 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right.

Pennati after 76 minutes of play, making the score 5 - 1. slavia's J. Huser struck his penalty well enough to beat the goalkeeper and extend the home team's lead to 6 - 1 after 79 minutes. At that, J. Huser was noted down for a hat trick! With 84 minutes played, slavia put themselves up 7 - 1 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to G. Seres, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. Content with how the game was proceeding, the slavia coach let W. Wicik replace O. Nilsen after 88 minutes. M. Beiern left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 88 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. R. Petroš was the replacement.

Obritzberger after 88 minutes. slavia claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 70 percent.
