47470 spectators arrived at Kielen City Stadium, where weather conditions were pretty good for football. Marino Trabace was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Teemu Leiniö and Rai Vallvé. Kielen started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. The following players had been chosen: Zaman - Kolbach, Gerken, Gégout - Fredbratt, Tapia, Amet, Grettnich, Deléglise - Delhomme, Vysaník.

B HILLS tactics involved an interesting 2-5-3 combination. They fielded: Toupeira - Czapp, Tamesberger - Galaz, Grosbusch, Morth, Garst, Porto Ferro - Junius, Wagener, Zuppiroli.

It was an obvious ambition of Kielen to use their ability at attacking on the flanks. Kielen fans held their breath as S. Deléglise scampered down the left side. He successfully avoided all challenges and cracked home the shot for 1 - 0! O. Vysaník increased the lead for Kielen to 2 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! 27 minutes in, Kielen's Q. Amet received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. 28 minutes into the game, J. Gerken had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came C. Abensperg. It was obvious that Kielen had instructions to attack on the wings instead of in the middle. With 35 minutes played, O. Vysaník could have brought this one home for Kielen as he charged up on the left, but his hooked ball went just a bit too high. The away team improved the scoreline to 2 - 1, as J. Morth struck home, set up well by a play on the left 36 minutes into the match. 2 - 1 was the score after the first half. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by B HILLS, with 54 percent of the ball.

After 60 minutes, B HILLS switched G. Zuppiroli with K. Bevan, hoping for a quick impact on the pitch. Although the whole team were struggling to impress, B HILLS's A. Czapp was singled out as being the problem as he was called off the pitch after 70 minutes. A. Sipari was given a chance to change things around. Always quick and a menace to his opponents, J. Junius was very close to getting through after 70 minutes, but he could only put the ball into the keeper's arms. After 83 minutes, B HILLS were awarded a free kick. Rather than shooting straight at goal, the taker went for an indirect variant which seemed to take his team mates a bit by surprise. P. Grosbusch did attempt a finish, but from an awkward position, sending the ball into the away fans. B HILLS tied it all up, 85 minutes in, after a spectacular goal by J. Morth, who miraculously broke through the home side's central defence, making it 2 - 2. B HILLS's B. Porto Ferro could have put the guests one up after 86 minutes after chasing a through ball from the right, but T. Zaman was as fast as a snake, grabbing the ball from under his nose. Kielen will have to do without L. Kolbach for a time, due to a bad foot injury at the 87 minute mark. He was substituted by M. Feinen. K. Wagener had a good opportunity to give B HILLS 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. B HILLS enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 58 percent of possession.

O. Vysaník performed admirably for Kielen. M. Feinen on the other hand, had a terrible day. The most dominating B HILLS player was without a doubt J. Garst. However, P. Galaz made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 2 - 2.
