The referee showed Cuppant's A. Cvijić the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Cuppant took the lead 22 minutes in, as M. Samm broke through on the left and put the 1 - 0 shot just beyond the reach of the outstretched keeper. Things were deteriorating for the away team as Cuppant scored another to make it 2 - 0 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for M. Marie after 29 minutes. The players of Cuppant now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, J. Bruehl got himself booked. The manager of Ezeréves was not happy. Things were going to get worse for the visitors. M. Pennisi squirmed through their central defence after 33 minutes, increasing the lead to 3 - 0. After 38 minutes, a couple of quick and successful challenges followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area by M. Pennisi might have resulted in another goal for Cuppant. However, R. Schlömicher made a spectacular save. 3 - 0 was the score after the first half. Possession in this half belonged to Cuppant, who controlled the ball 84 percent of the time.

Cuppant's M. Marie increased the lead to 4 - 0, after he saw his shot go between the legs of the advancing goalkeeper following some good play down the right wing after 50 minutes. After 51 minutes, the away team failed to deal with a good exchange of passes on the right, and M. Pennisi gave the Cuppant supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 5 - 0. Cuppant managed to extend their lead to 6 - 0 when S. Martinsson cut in neatly from the left side and struck a fine shot past the away team's goalkeeper. M. Marie acted with superior experience when, 75 minutes into the match, he predicted a pass, intercepted it and then finished off with a goal. 7 - 0 for Cuppant! That was his third goal of the match - a hat trick for M. Marie. Cuppant increased the lead as M. Marie struck to make the score 8 - 0 after an attack from the left left him unmarked in front of the keeper. Cuppant solidified their lead at the 82 minute mark, as S. Plunkett dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 9 - 0. Cuppant had most of the ball, with 86 percent of possession.

Cuppant's best player was P. Kroh. On the other hand, Á. Nagy's play was disheartening. R. Arláth performed admirably for Ezeréves. G. Cairo turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 9 - 0.
