Today, TIMAOFC's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. After 26 minutes, familia's M. Lorencini fell awkwardly, but was determined to stay in the match. That's the spirit! After 33 minutes, TIMAOFC's M. Soehner made his way through the middle and nonchalantly placed the ball out of the keeper's reach, putting the visitors up 0 - 1. Almost all the way down to the corner flag, TIMAOFC's M. Błachnio somehow managed to get a perfect pass into the middle, impossible to miss for Á. Fodor, who struck for 0 - 2. After 39 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for M. Błachnio who increased TIMAOFC's lead to 0 - 3. At this point, it was obvious that the players of TIMAOFC lowered the tempo and became more defensively oriented. 0 - 3 was the score after the first half. TIMAOFC enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 52 percent of possession.

TIMAOFC had a good opportunity to attack in the middle, but remembered their instructions to focus on wing attacks instead. With 64 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed T. Raich of TIMAOFC to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 0 - 4. The home crowd cheered when, after 79 minutes, T. Svensson's charge up the middle resulted in the keeper making one of his best saves of the day. 82 minutes in, familia's A. Sardinha received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. M. Soehner came close to extending the visitors' lead when he found himself completely unmarked in front of the goal after a pass through the middle. He tried to lift the ball over N. Telles but overcooked it and hit the bar instead. Possession in this half belonged to TIMAOFC, who controlled the ball 52 percent of the time.

M. Lorencini performed admirably for familia. However, L. Yan made a disastrous appearance. TIMAOFC's best player was Á. Fodor. M. Błachnio was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 4.
