The 28780 fans in attendance at *SERPA Arena* were roasting in the hot sun. Angelo Ciotti was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Lorenzo Ladrón and Menno Bergkamp. A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for SERPA7. The following players had been chosen: Glod - Noboa, Groskreutz, Pasarič - Gršković, Glocknitzer, Sisterón, Candela, Karl - van der Staaij, Gano.

Winners tactics involved an interesting 4-4-2 combination. The following players took the field: Cerchiari - Sunay, Edrevski, Schöpf, Schneiderman - Meibom, Liebers, 育达 (Yuda), Nunes Soares - Mandel, Savić.

At 8 minutes played, B. Gršković came in from the right with the intention of giving SERPA7 the lead, but his rocket of a shot rattled the crossbar. SERPA7's T. Glocknitzer tried to break through in the middle repeatedly, but couldn't get past the visitors' defenders. After 38 minutes, Winners put themselves up 0 - 1, as Y. Schneiderman finished off a strike from the left with a real cannonball of a shot. With 40 minutes having been played, SERPA7 scored to make it 1 - 1. A dribble down the left wing, followed by a shot which took a wicked bounce off a defender resulted in the keeper having no chance. Everyone thought it'd been an own goal, but Ł. Gano was marked down as the scorer. SERPA7 took the lead 42 minutes in, as D. Pasarič broke through on the left and put the 2 - 1 shot just beyond the reach of the outstretched keeper. 2 - 1 was the halftime score. SERPA7 claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 60 percent.

Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by SERPA7, with 59 percent of the ball.

A. van der Staaij performed admirably for SERPA7. R. Glod turned in a dismal performance, however. Winners's best player was N. Mandel. J. Nunes Soares was a disappointment, however. The match ends 2 - 1.
