The wings were the focus of most of Caliente's attacks today. 14 minutes in, Caliente's L. Ispas received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. L. Ispas of Caliente got sent off for kicking the ball after the whistle, a completely uncalled for move, earning him his second yellow card of the game. Ò. Riera of A-tact was booked for kicking the ball away after the whistle. M. Suhrada had a good opportunity to give A-tact the lead as he charged down the right and struck the ball towards the top corner, but the home team's goalkeeper made the save. 0 - 0 was the halftime score. Possession in this half belonged to Caliente, who controlled the ball 55 percent of the time.

A-tact's N. Houel managed to lose the defenders as he advanced down the right wing and scored, putting the visitors ahead after 48 minutes. 0 - 1. With the crowd on their feet chanting wildly, some great moves down the right hand side after 52 minutes gave Caliente a wonderful opportunity to level the score, and D. Choi stepped up to the challenge. 1 - 1 After 60 minutes, the Caliente manager redeployed his men. B. Pędowski swapped positions with T. Peyras. After 60 minutes, the Caliente coach had a quick word about the tactical set-up and decided to try another approach. The coach of Caliente wanted to try to change things around after 60 minutes, and gave new tactical instructions. The home side put themselves ahead 2 - 1 after 66 minutes courtesy of a breakthrough from B. Munter, who scored with a stunning volley following a cross from the right wing. The corner kick from B. Pędowski was powerfully met by the head of B. Munter to make the score 3 - 1. A-tact's A. Sedykh got himself booked for a foul. A loud groan was heard from the fans of Caliente, as D. Choi left the pitch in too much pain to finish the match. F. Grööndahl took his place on the field. The referee showed Caliente's B. Pędowski the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Caliente coach let X. Cappoen replace C. Amant after 89 minutes. Caliente had most of the ball, with 58 percent of possession.

Caliente's top performer was clearly O. Gabrielsson. X. Cappoen was a disappointment, however. Most important A-tact player was J. Bichon. However, I. Mitseas made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 3 - 1.
