A scorching day at Arena Zix Mourinho, where 19692 spectators were in place for today's match. Zebulón Zercalde was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Mikołaj Pazdyka and Mika Tervakallio. Laura decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. Lineup: Spaveras - Iliano, Bölle, Milić, Nordli - Májik, Stoker, Baumann, Nachtergaele - Davari, Wulffen.

Komletinci tactics involved an interesting 4-4-2 combination. They fielded: Šangulin - Banzić, Pervan, Živčić, Zeljko - Oblak, Rebov, Gevay, Ibáñez - Bistričić, Valjan.

Komletinci clearly had decided to counter-attack when they could. J. Nachtergaele acted with superior experience when, 7 minutes into the match, he predicted a pass, intercepted it and then finished off with a goal. 1 - 0 for Laura! With 11 minutes played, Laura put themselves up 2 - 0 when the visiting defenders lost the ball to S. Davari, who came up from the left and proceeded to coolly round the keeper and knock the ball home. Some things can only be learned through experience, and V. Banzić should take his lesson to heart after nearly gifting Laura a goal with 16 minutes of the match played. S. Davari should probably have put his team up another goal after 26 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by B. Šangulin kept the visitors in the game. S. Davari unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. 2 - 0 was the halftime score. Laura claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 70 percent.

V. Banzić of Komletinci received a yellow card after 56 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Laura solidified their lead at the 58 minute mark, as Ž. Májik dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 3 - 0. G. Wulffen wanted to play on, but the Laura coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 65 minutes into the game by B. Cvitan. Komletinci's B. Zeljko refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 66 minutes. Several players seemed a little dazed by the warm weather, and were repeatedly tricked by the clever and agile B. Zeljko. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Laura's G. Bölle increasing the lead to 4 - 0. By now, the players in Laura felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Laura coach let L. Fagerberg replace A. Baumann after 75 minutes. After 79 minutes, the away team failed to deal with a good exchange of passes on the right, and J. Nachtergaele gave the Laura supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 5 - 0. One of many good crosses from J. Nachtergaele on the wing was received and skillfully taken care of by S. Davari, who scored for Laura. 6 - 0 Laura's J. Nachtergaele got himself booked for a foul. Laura made it 7 - 0 as J. Nachtergaele got a touch to the floated corner kick and flicked the ball to G. Bölle who whipped a low drive in off the far post. 89 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as G. Iliano broke through, making the score 8 - 0 for Laura. Laura had most of the ball, with 76 percent of possession.

The most dominating Laura player was without a doubt L. Fagerberg. N. Spaveras turned in a dismal performance, however. Komletinci's best player was Ž. Bistričić. On the other hand, V. Pervan's play was disheartening. The match ends 8 - 0.
