0 - 1 was the score with 3 minutes played, after E. Lazecký cut through the central defence and chipped home a goal for lhoty. With 14 minutes played, seemingly due to lack of experience, J. Mudruňka needlessly tripped an opponent just outside the penalty area, but the free kick that followed didn't succeed. After 21 minutes Liverpool's R. Wiedermann contracted a slight foot injury, but didn't want to leave the game. J. Bábek of lhoty took advantage of a mistake on the home side's right after 31 minutes which increased the away team's lead to 0 - 2. 32 minutes into the game, lhoty were awarded a penalty and J. Poledník was able to increase the visitors' lead to 0 - 3 rolling the ball in by the right post. After this, you could see that the players of lhoty were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. 35 minutes in, Liverpool's M. Hlubuček received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. A loud groan was heard from the fans of lhoty, as R. Dobrý left the pitch in too much pain to finish the match. F. Jakubec took his place on the field. The lhoty captaincy was handed to D. Kudláček. With 38 minutes played, F. Jakubec nearly put the visitors another one up as he broke through in the middle and fired from just outside the box, but his shot passed just over the bar. 0 - 3 was the score after the first half. lhoty enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 73 percent of possession.

J. Volf was the first to reach the corner kick, but his header was blocked by the keeper. However, lhoty's F. Jakubec managed to get hold of the rebound and tucked the ball into the empty net. 0 - 4 D. Hladík was, after 53 minutes, almost able to extend the visitors' lead with a well placed diving header after the ball had looped into the centre, but the home side's keeper R. Raušer made the save. 54 minutes into the match, D. Kudláček came through the middle and almost added to his team's lead, but the shot went wide. Liverpool had to make a substitution after 57 minutes. R. Raušer limped off the field and was replaced by Z. Minařík. A drive down the left side allowed J. Mudruňka to get in close and score another goal for lhoty after 65 minutes, taking the score to 0 - 5. With 72 minutes played, J. Poledník of lhoty fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. V. Plaček was struggling to make the ball dance with his usual trickery and panache, and the opposing players had little trouble shutting him down in these muddy conditions. Possession in this half belonged to lhoty, who controlled the ball 73 percent of the time.

Most important Liverpool player was D. Dostál. On the other hand, Z. Faust's play was disheartening. The most dominating lhoty player was without a doubt J. Gajdošík. E. Fajtl on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 5.
