44826 punters turned up at Stadio delle Pre-Alpi, and despite threatening clouds on the horizon, no rain came.

Stresacamisa decided to use a 3-4-3 set up. The following players took the field: Casarin - Gunsch, Gallinari, Treccani - Stracciari, Gatti, Raspalvelli, Savio - Klyunin, Černík, Vylám.

A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for Real Mart. They fielded: Moreno - Thierig, Barrevoets, Roelofs - Pfleger, Puppola, Shepherd, Nájera, Varandalla - Kristensen, Maksur.

After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, J. Vylám got himself booked. The manager of Stresacamisa was not happy. Real Mart's A. Puppola got himself booked for a foul. Stresacamisa were forced into a substitution as M. Casarin couldn't continue due to some rough treatment, forcing G. Ferrario to come in off the bench. After 19 minutes J. Vylám made a speedy advance and dropped the ball to I. Klyunin who shuffled it past the keeper. The score was now 1 - 0. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. J. Vylám squirmed through their central defence after 20 minutes, increasing the lead to 2 - 0. Stresacamisa's J. Vylám saw his fine effort strike the top of the bar following some good work up the middle by his teammates after 30 minutes. Halftime score was 2 - 0. Stresacamisa claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 52 percent.

Stresacamisa put in a good effort on the right, but C. Treccani saw his volley fly wide of the mark 67 minutes into the game. Although the whole team were struggling to impress, Real Mart's M. Barrevoets was singled out as being the problem as he was called off the pitch after 74 minutes. G. Rocco was given a chance to change things around. As the game started to slip away for Real Mart, the manager decided to change the tactical approach. The Real Mart players listened closely to their manager, as he gave new tactical instructions for the team. 76 minutes into the match, Real Mart replied and reduced the lead to 2 - 1. F. Kristensen scored on a marvellous cross pass coming in from the left. V. Černík unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. With 81 minutes played, Stresacamisa put themselves up 3 - 1 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to I. Klyunin, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. Possession in this half belonged to Stresacamisa, who controlled the ball 53 percent of the time.

Most important Stresacamisa player was A. Gatti. G. Ferrario on the other hand, had a terrible day. Real Mart's top performer was clearly J. Thierig. J. Varandalla was a disappointment, however. The match ends 3 - 1.
