A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for GreenBayPackets. They fielded: Rubio Rueda - Liudkevičius, Hughes, Buron Cuadrado - Rajakallio, Pelach, Campano, Hernandorena, Colace - Eulen, Abrahamsen.

hito started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. Starters: Armenteros - Savagnone, Kleinschrot, Śnieguła - Ganduxer, Neira, Mateu, Humaña, Vipotnik - Portela, Bazsó.

The corner kick from E. Śnieguła was powerfully met by the head of F. Ganduxer to make the score 0 - 1. GreenBayPackets's A. Eulen was shown a yellow card after 6 minutes for slicing down an opponent. GreenBayPackets's A. Campano had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 18 minutes having been played. G. Ragull was the replacement. GreenBayPackets's A. Eulen made a successful breakthrough on the left after 33 minutes and should have levelled the score, but instead he clipped it over the bar. 34 minutes into the match, GreenBayPackets's R. Buron Cuadrado maneuvered his way around the opposition on the left flank, delighting the crowd with his twists and turns. The effort paid off as the ball found the back of the net, evening the score at 1 - 1. With 35 minutes played G. Ragull almost put the home team one ahead on a cross coming in from the right, but the shot went just wide. Halftime score was 1 - 1. GreenBayPackets had most of the ball, with 51 percent of possession.

hito's A. Humaña got himself booked for a foul. It wasn't a good day at all for I. Pelach. His powerful style of play just didn't fit the bill on this warm day. As the 70 minute mark approached, the hito coach decided it was time for a substitution. J. Armenteros reluctantly made way for J. Lavado on the pitch. GreenBayPackets broke through on the left 75 minutes into the game, with O. Hernandorena firing in from an acute angle to give the home side a 2 - 1 lead. Things were deteriorating for the away team as GreenBayPackets scored another to make it 3 - 1 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for F. Colace after 79 minutes. GreenBayPackets enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 54 percent of possession.

Most important GreenBayPackets player was O. Hernandorena. On the other hand, G. Ragull's play was disheartening. The most dominating hito player was without a doubt P. Mateu. J. Lavado on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 3 - 1.
