The visiting
Y. Ginsheim was booed thoroughly by the home crowd 3 minutes into the game, after he broke through the middle and scored, resulting in the visitors taking the lead. 0 - 1 was the score.
M. Oliver of pimpplayaz seemed to be floating in the air as he elegantly headed in to make the score 0 - 2 after a corner kick that was nicely executed by
Y. Ginsheim.
With 39 minutes played, pimpplayaz's
Y. Ginsheim missed a penalty when the keeper made a premature dive in the right direction, and palmed the ball out of the way.
H. Collado came close to extending the visitors' lead when he found himself completely unmarked in front of the goal after a pass through the middle. He tried to lift the ball over
R. Ruebensaal but overcooked it and hit the bar instead.
Halftime score was 0 - 2.
Possession in this half belonged to RedLights, who controlled the ball 53 percent of the time.
After 63 minutes, pimpplayaz's
G. Wojniusz burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 3.
After 74 minutes, following yet another great corner,
D. Francke's flick on at the near post reached
E. Neckermann, who was just wide with his snapshot - the ball went out for a goal kick.
Content with how the game was proceeding, the pimpplayaz coach let
F. Ściebura replace
M. Oliver after 75 minutes.
The coach of pimpplayaz was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 75 minutes,
M. Greaves came on for
S. Garzón.

T. Hoenderkamp got the home crowd going when he finished off a left wing charge, reducing the away team's lead to 1 - 3.
A drive down the left side allowed
P. Popa to get in close and score another goal for pimpplayaz after 77 minutes, taking the score to 1 - 4.
After this, you could see that the players of pimpplayaz were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals.
B. Suhard left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 80 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead.
J. Croft was the replacement.
O. Ysebaert was handed the pimpplayaz captain's armband.

A. Caso.
With 83 minutes played,
A. Salva 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.
After 86 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed
A. Salva to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 1 - 5.
Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by pimpplayaz, with 59 percent of the ball.
M. Szewczyk performed admirably for RedLights.
