Lecaros finished off a pass from the left and scored after 29 minutes. 2 - 1 was the score. Coming through the middle E. Luci almost scored the equaliser for salento after 36 minutes, but G. Santoro made an excellent save, tipping the awkwardly curled shot past the post. After 38 minutes, Rullus raised their score by one when E. Izaurralde's dangerous low cross was cleverly tucked in at the near post by R. Lis. 3 - 1. The home team's fans were upset when, after 39 minutes, the visiting B. Palmarini broke through the central defence and kicked the ball past the keeper. 3 - 2 was the score. Halftime score was 3 - 2. salento had most of the ball, with 62 percent of possession.

Content with how the game was proceeding, the Rullus coach let J. Norris replace D. Boudier after 46 minutes. The crowd was silenced 48 minutes into the match as the visiting team's M. Mazlum came in from the left, levelling the score to 3 - 3. E. Izaurralde of Rullus received a yellow card after 53 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. After 65 minutes, salento's H. Kivinurm made his way through the middle and nonchalantly placed the ball out of the keeper's reach, putting the visitors up 3 - 4. The head of J. Kaustio connected with a corner kick after 66 minutes, and the ball ended up with B. Palmarini of salento who blasted the ball into the net, making the score 3 - 5. After the ball was lifted in from the left, E. Luci was on his own in the home side's penalty area and should have scored after 67 minutes, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration. salento claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 62 percent.

Most important Rullus player was R. Lis. İ. Sarıbay turned in a dismal performance, however. R. Lecaros performed admirably for salento. However, D. Costa made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 3 - 5.
