Punani demonstrated their creative tactics on the field. Aquator mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. 0 - 1 was the score with 3 minutes played, after A. Morillo cut through the central defence and chipped home a goal for Aquator. After 10 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for T. Bozoba who increased Aquator's lead to 0 - 2. Punani's P. Lyyra placed the ball right at his teammate's feet after a corner, but Y. Posch couldn't finish. After 35 minutes, an incisive pass through the middle gave A. Morillo a chance to increase the lead for Aquator, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 0 - 3. It was 0 - 3 at the break. Possession in this half belonged to Aquator, who controlled the ball 51 percent of the time.

The home crowd cheered when, after 50 minutes, N. Akkan's charge up the middle resulted in the keeper making one of his best saves of the day. Punani's E. Suárez got himself booked for a foul. The referee showed Punani's E. Palmquist the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. After 73 minutes, J. Gallardo had a good opportunity to reduce the scoreline for Punani with a chance created through the middle, but wasn't cool enough. The ball went miles over the bar. With the scoreboard showing that 79 minutes had been played, Aquator nearly put themselves up another goal after H. Borysiuk came through on the left. Fortunately for the home crowd, the keeper made the save. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Aquator, with 51 percent of the ball.

The most dominating Punani player was without a doubt P. Lyyra. J. Detzer on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important Aquator player was T. Bozoba. V. Campestrini was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 3.
