KDIII tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. Starters: Stefansson - Doneck, Jecu, Oskarsson - Cioccoletta, Onganer, Ersoy, Smith, Harvala - Padilha, Alexa.

It seemed as though KDIII considered the game won before even taking the field, which resulted in a very uninspired start to the game. The boggy pitch disrupted the game, especially for technical players like M. Onganer. KDIII's C. Doneck got himself booked for a foul. It was a bad day for the usually speedy L. Severo. The mud seemed to slow him down. 0 - 1 was the score with 26 minutes played, after I. Alexa cut through the central defence and chipped home a goal for KDIII. S. Harvala could have added one to the visitors' lead if his free kick had gone just a little lower. J. Pelhate was just a finger's breadth away from an equaliser for Norslund with a strike from the left, but A. Stefansson managed to ward the shot off for a corner. A penalty was awarded after 40 minutes, and S. Harvala made the most of his chance to put KDIII up by another goal. 0 - 2 for the visitors. 0 - 2 was the halftime score. KDIII claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 63 percent.

After the ball was lifted in from the left, S. Padilha was on his own in the home side's penalty area and should have scored after 78 minutes, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration. With 80 minutes played, KDIII put themselves up 0 - 3 after an attack from the right, caused by a defensive blunder. The scorer was L. Cioccoletta. The game was close to savage at times, and KDIII's C. Doneck received a second yellow card after 84 minutes; his ticket out of the game. Possession in this half belonged to KDIII, who controlled the ball 64 percent of the time.

Most important Norslund player was C. Jatene. However, J. Mathews made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating KDIII player was without a doubt I. Alexa. M. Onganer was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 3.
