Today, conbriccola's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. 8 minutes into the match conbriccola's T. Ferrier couldn't take advantage of the penalty kick to put his team up by a goal. G. Scazzoso really should have scored when he was chosen by fate to confront a wide open goal following a great play by M. Volpato after a corner. Attacking on the wings was the choice for conbriccola, and they were successfully passing the ball from the middle to the wings to attack. conbriccola's R. Žbirka managed to lose the defenders as he advanced down the right wing and scored, putting the visitors ahead after 13 minutes. 0 - 1. C. Oderda of conbriccola received a yellow card after 23 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. Several players seemed a little dazed by the warm weather, and were repeatedly tricked by the clever and agile S. Aligse. After 26 minutes, conbriccola's M. Lansbergen burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 2. With 35 minutes played, G. Scazzoso of atletico fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. P. Szynwelski increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 3. After 40 minutes P. Sica could have reduced the lead with a blistering strike from the left wing, had it not been for an excellent block by the visitors' keeper. 0 - 3 was the score after the first half. conbriccola claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 51 percent.

The home crowd was not impressed when C. Oderda came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 55 minutes. conbriccola were now up 0 - 4. Confident in their lead, conbriccola's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. After 74 minutes atletico's P. Sica contracted a slight foot injury, but didn't want to leave the game. At 86 minutes into the game, atletico's J. Moisan deftly knocked the ball home after an impressive run down the left, reducing the visitors' lead to 1 - 4. After 88 minutes, I. Ambar had a good opportunity to reduce the scoreline for atletico with a chance created through the middle, but wasn't cool enough. The ball went miles over the bar. J. Moisan did everything he could to get one back for his atletico, but keeper M. Crenzin-Götz denied him with a spectacular block. Possession in this half belonged to atletico, who controlled the ball 51 percent of the time.

atletico's best player was T. Gregersen. On the other hand, M. Padrini's play was disheartening. P. Szynwelski performed admirably for conbriccola. However, R. Žbirka made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 1 - 4.
