Dark skies made the crowd of 20679 at bombeira stadium a little nervous, but the rain held off. Klaus Coburg was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Justin Kolen and Volker Grodecki. SCHIANTESE started off with a 2-5-2 lineup. Starters: Arrobbio - Rambone, Scaldaferri - Piirtola, Göktan, Vodolazskiy, Rondineau, Novák - Čarniauskas, Buják.

acriky used their skill at pressing to cut off the attack angles of their opponents all over the field. SCHIANTESE took the lead 8 minutes in, as D. Vodolazskiy broke through on the left and put the 1 - 0 shot just beyond the reach of the outstretched keeper. The visitors' M. Pousadas was alert after a cross coming in from the left, levelling the score at 1 - 1 after 16 minutes. SCHIANTESE took the lead 31 minutes into the game by 2 - 1, as S. Rondineau elegantly received a long range pass through the middle, finishing off with a half-volley shot just below the bar. 35 minutes in, SCHIANTESE appeared unsure on how to play and their organisation was only inadequate. G. Moscardino finished off a quick charge from the left of the field by chipping the ball just past the home side's keeper, making the score 2 - 2 36 minutes into the match. T. Kalczyński had a good try after 44 minutes, coming in on a fine move from the left, but the ball went wide. The teams went for the halftime break at 2 - 2. acriky claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 62 percent.

The coach gave his players an extra tactical briefing during the break, and after that SCHIANTESE had solid organisation. SCHIANTESE's R. Piirtola was dominating his wing and kept sending fine balls into the opposition's box - M. Buják managed to volley one of them into the net to make it 3 - 2 after 47 minutes. 52 minutes into the game, SCHIANTESE seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a weak level of organisation. acriky's C. Kämmerer refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 53 minutes. acriky tied it all up, 72 minutes in, after a spectacular goal by D. Belo Silva, who miraculously broke through the home side's central defence, making it 3 - 3. A. Kerkvliet of acriky received a yellow card after 74 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. The guests took the lead 81 minutes into the match, after a right-side attack resulted in R. Tynecki scoring to make it 3 - 4. With 82 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed G. Moscardino of acriky to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 3 - 5. The acriky players could smell victory in the air. S. Tarkka wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for J. Wenneck after 83 minutes. After this, you could see that the players of acriky were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. Possession in this half belonged to acriky, who controlled the ball 66 percent of the time.

Most important SCHIANTESE player was A. Rambone. However, O. Novák made a disastrous appearance. acriky's best player was L. Bonura. J. Wenneck was a disappointment, however. The match ends 3 - 5.
