Counter-attacking seemed to be the preferred strategy of Fc Pfyn. They were singing the praises of J.

Salmenmaa curled a free kick home after 21 minutes, putting FC BWZ ahead 2 - 0. FC BWZ's D. Bencivenghi swung in a good chance from the left, but the visitors' defence were able to clear the ball.

After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, G. Bandosz got himself booked. The manager of Fc Pfyn was not happy. FC BWZ solidified their lead at the 41 minute mark, as E. Di Croce dribbled the ball through the opposing central defence and scored to make it 3 - 0. The teams went for the halftime break at 3 - 0. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by FC BWZ, with 67 percent of the ball.

The referee showed Fc Pfyn's W. Del favero the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in FC BWZ's C. Malgaroli increasing the lead to 4 - 0. J. Nummila showed his inexperience when he failed to anticipate the bounce of a high ball, allowing Fc Pfyn's H. Ibn-Osman to take advantage and place a shot into the bottom corner of the goal. 4 - 1. 81 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as K. Strube broke through, making the score 5 - 1 for FC BWZ. Confident in their lead, FC BWZ's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. FC BWZ claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 68 percent.
