Using their counter-attacking abilities was the strategy of choice for Quatretonda. The goal to make it 0 - 1 was scored by P. Santillana after 9 minutes, following an opportunistic counterattack down the middle by Quatretonda. The referee showed Quatretonda's K. Johansen the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Some fine passing in the middle of the pitch, carving open the away defence, should have led to a goal for auzune, but D. Michalaras's shot went over the bar. E. Parreño was in the clear after breaking the offside trap following a Quatretonda counterattack from the left after 29 minutes. His neat finish made the score 0 - 2. Quatretonda had to make a substitution after 41 minutes. K. Johansen limped off the field and was replaced by T. Rocha. After 42 minutes, L. Vairinho had a good opportunity to reduce the scoreline for auzune with a chance created through the middle, but wasn't cool enough. The ball went miles over the bar. 0 - 2 was the score after the first half. Possession in this half belonged to auzune, who controlled the ball 67 percent of the time.

With the clock showing 77 minutes played, a great pass from the defensive line of Quatretonda resulted in a counterattack that was smoothly brought under control by P. Trakarn-nitidharma in the centre of the opposition's penalty area, but his finish went high. auzune's D. Michalaras was shown a yellow card after 81 minutes for slicing down an opponent. A loud groan was heard from the fans of Quatretonda, as C. Martínez left the pitch in too much pain to finish the match. C. Ameixa took his place on the field. auzune's H. Yousefi found himself alone on the left side 83 minutes into the match and laid down a perfect shot - right into the arms of the keeper! auzune had most of the ball, with 68 percent of possession.

Most important auzune player was E. Vergeylen. U. Moldobaev turned in a dismal performance, however. Quatretonda's top performer was clearly P. Trakarn-nitidharma. However, T. Rocha made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 2.
