Urban saw most attack opportunities on the wings. Krompachy seemed to prefer attacking in the middle. Attacking on the wings was the choice for Urban, and they were successfully passing the ball from the middle to the wings to attack. Players in Urban heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their central attacks to the wings instead. After 31 minutes, Urban's A. Pierce fell awkwardly, but was determined to stay in the match. That's the spirit! With 32 minutes played, M. Huuhka of Urban fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. Halftime score was 0 - 0. Urban enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 51 percent of possession.

Urban created a good opportunity to score 47 minutes into the match when J. Winkelhagen's hooked ball from the left created a scuffle in front of the goal, and the visitors' defenders had a hard time clearing the ball. Unsportsmanlike behaviour by M. Huuhka rendered him his second booking of the match, and Urban had to finish the game with a reduced squad. Central attacks were the recipe of the day for Krompachy, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity. Ľ. Gelieň came close to putting the visiting team one up 68 minutes into the match, following a solo raid down the middle, but B. da Costa managed to tip the ball to a corner. 70 minutes into the game, Urban wanted to bring some new energy to their game. L. Demonty gave M. Motzer a quick hug as he left the field. After 70 minutes, the Urban coach wanted to see a new face on the pitch, waving J. Flücken off the field. B. Pais took his place. A. Pierce would have preferred to play on, but his coach decided otherwise. M. Arvo entered the game for Urban as the match clock showed 70 minutes. Krompachy had a great opportunity to score following a counterattack after 70 minutes, but G. Creaolis's shot from the left sailed high over the bar. Down the middle came G. Creaolis, making a fantastic play that nearly had Krompachy take the lead after 76 minutes, but B. da Costa preserved the tie. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Urban, with 52 percent of the ball.

Urban's top performer was clearly B. Pais. B. da Costa on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating Krompachy player was without a doubt G. Morales. However, S. Boca made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 0.
