Pressing was the tactic of the day for Bonobeach. Today, fc.brunstatt's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. 0 - 1 was the score with 8 minutes played, after F. Bach cut through the central defence and chipped home a goal for fc.brunstatt. fc.brunstatt's A. Leleu was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 24 minutes. In a rapid move 25 minutes into the match, E. Prugger of fc.brunstatt lost his man and passed the ball to the unmarked J. Robert who easily hit it home to make it 0 - 2. Luckily the ref didn't see him taunting the opposing fans in celebration - naughty boy! The crowd groaned when S. Talamo, having maneuvered his way down the right, fired the ball just wide and missed a great opportunity to reduce the deficit for Bonobeach. Bonobeach's S. Talamo found himself alone on the left side 28 minutes into the match and laid down a perfect shot - right into the arms of the keeper! The referee showed Bonobeach's T. Azuri the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. A marvellous Bonobeach effort on the right-hand side resulted in a goal after 34 minutes by S. Talamo, making the score 1 - 2. 1 - 2 was the halftime score. Possession in this half belonged to Bonobeach, who controlled the ball 57 percent of the time.

S. Talamo made a superb strike after 59 minutes with a shot straight in front of the goal after a long ball through the middle, but one of the visitors' defenders got a foot in at the last second and warded it off for a corner. fc.brunstatt caught their opponents out with a clever counterattack down the right wing 60 minutes into the match. A. Rabut was able to finish off the move - 1 - 3. Confident in their lead, fc.brunstatt's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. Some things can only be learned through experience, and D. Ragunavičius should take his lesson to heart after nearly gifting fc.brunstatt a goal with 62 minutes of the match played. A. Peñaloza almost reduced the deficit, having drawn the entire left side defence away, but the shot went straight into the arms of the goalkeeper. One of many good crosses from É. Argaud on the wing was received and skillfully taken care of by J. Robert, who scored for fc.brunstatt. 1 - 4 Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Bonobeach, with 51 percent of the ball.

The most dominating Bonobeach player was without a doubt K. Ensar. On the other hand, A. Hochkoeppler's play was disheartening. fc.brunstatt's top performer was clearly F. Bach. However, A. Rabut made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 1 - 4.
