Kanonýři saw most attack opportunities on the wings. Some good play on the left wing created an opportunity for the visitors 30 minutes into the match, and R. Bjørnstad wasn't about to let it go by. He got past the defenders and fired a shot that the keeper just missed. 0 - 1 for the visitors. Hleďsebe's V. Golosov had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 34 minutes having been played. M. Schütz was the replacement. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 1. Hleďsebe enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 62 percent of possession.

M. Lafuente Manso de Zuñiga fired a shot from distance after 63 minutes, but the long shot couldn't find the net for Hleďsebe. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Kanonýři coach let M. Dudouet replace Á. Gonçalves after 75 minutes. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, P. Saragoça got himself booked. The manager of Kanonýři was not happy. M. Schovanec wanted to play on, but the Kanonýři coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 78 minutes into the game by T. März. The Kanonýři players could smell victory in the air. J. Mikeš wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for H. Nosek after 79 minutes. P. Saragoça became the new Kanonýři captain. Hleďsebe put pressure on the visitors' central defence 82 minutes into the game, but M. Faye couldn't find an opening. Hleďsebe's M. Wildsachsen put his head to a well placed ball, lifted in from the left, and scored to make the score 1 - 1 with 84 minutes showing on the scoreboard clock. Hleďsebe had most of the ball, with 67 percent of possession.

Most important Hleďsebe player was J. Forsell. However, M. Schütz made a disastrous appearance. A. Letombe performed admirably for Kanonýři. On the other hand, T. März's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 1.
