14550 spectators had found their way to
Acqua bagnata, despite the heavy rain.
András Cserhalmi was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
David Mahieu and

Gavettoni had chosen a strategic 3-4-3 formation.
The following players had been chosen: Kiraga - Énard, van Dieren, Bruynseels - Arnaud, Fidje, Arcozzo, Nowak - Mulahmetović, Adamantidis, Hellrung.
D-Generation started off with a 3-5-2 lineup.
They fielded: Rehrl - Văn An, Scerra, Danis - Barbosa, Mulas, Vondelinge, Sinulaki, Hoornik - Cilaurren, Soares.
After a fine move down the middle
N. Nowak nearly gave the home side a goal after 3 minutes. However the finishing shot went just wide.
H. Fidje caused the crowd to go mental with his goal up the middle after 4 minutes. This gave Gavettoni the 1 - 0 lead.
With 16 minutes played, Gavettoni's
D. Arcozzo almost extended the lead, but his shot from the left glanced off the top of the bar to fall behind the net.
1 - 0 was the score after the first half.
Possession in this half belonged to Gavettoni, who controlled the ball 53 percent of the time.
Things were going to get worse for the visitors.
Y. Adamantidis squirmed through their central defence after 48 minutes, increasing the lead to 2 - 0.
Cheers filled the stadium as
A. Mulahmetović broke through the visitors' central defence to put away the ball to increase the lead to 3 - 0 to Gavettoni.
I. Sinulaki of D-Generation was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle.
After 69 minutes,
J. Arnaud put Gavettoni ahead 4 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing.
Confident in their lead, Gavettoni's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it.
Gavettoni had most of the ball, with 51 percent of possession.
Gavettoni's top performer was clearly
Y. Adamantidis.
E. Kiraga was a disappointment, however.

R. Rehrl turned in a dismal performance, however.
The match ends 4 - 0.
