Lineup: Serdyński - Mayans, Cadoret, Chambers, Öhrdahl - Losurdu, Watine, Dymiński, Pettersen - Bofill, Cinello.

Liverpool decided to use a 3-4-3 set up. Starters: Alaimo - Sivár, Ribeiro, Schwedler - Billeskov, van Amerongen, Kroler, Rivas - Faragó, Iros, Mislei.

Today, Egyesülete's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. Liverpool displayed their ability to play creatively. Players in Egyesülete heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their central attacks to the wings instead. Egyesülete were very close to putting themselves one up after 4 minutes as F. Watine got through on the left, but failing in concentration, he shot the ball wide. With 8 minutes played, C. Losurdu of Egyesülete fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. Attacking on the wings was the choice for Egyesülete, and they were successfully passing the ball from the middle to the wings to attack. Egyesülete took the lead after 16 minutes as a result of A. Cadoret's peach of a shot from the right hand side of the box - placed beautifully in the top corner. 1 - 0. Egyesülete's C. Chambers swung in a good chance from the left, but the visitors' defence were able to clear the ball. One of many good crosses from J. Billeskov on the wing was received and skillfully taken care of by J. Iros, who scored for Liverpool. 1 - 1 Having been awarded a free kick in an awkward position after 26 minutes, Egyesülete did not go for a shot but instead fired the ball hard into the 6 yard box. After a brief tussle with his marker, R. Mayans was able to power the ball past the keeper to make the score 2 - 1. Egyesülete made it 3 - 1 as D. Cinello got a touch to the floated corner kick and flicked the ball to J. Pettersen who whipped a low drive in off the far post. Egyesülete put themselves up 4 - 1 when F. Watine broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. It was 4 - 1 at the break. Egyesülete enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 63 percent of possession.

With 75 minutes played, J. Pettersen could have brought this one home for Egyesülete as he charged up on the left, but his hooked ball went just a bit too high. I. Faragó of Liverpool received a yellow card after 79 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Things were deteriorating for the away team as Egyesülete scored another to make it 5 - 1 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for C. Chambers after 84 minutes. Egyesülete solidified their lead at the 85 minute mark, as D. Cinello dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 6 - 1. At this point, it was obvious that the players of Egyesülete lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. 88 minutes in, Egyesülete's J. Bofill received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. W. Dymiński's curling free kick almost found the goal for Egyesülete, but the visitors' keeper somehow managed to get ahold of it. Liverpool's J. Billeskov got himself booked for a foul. Possession in this half belonged to Egyesülete, who controlled the ball 59 percent of the time.

The most dominating Egyesülete player was without a doubt W. Dymiński. C. Chambers on the other hand, had a terrible day. Liverpool's best player was J. Iros. However, M. Alaimo made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 6 - 1.
