They fielded: Catello - Hörgen, Houblon, Vojnić, Florescu - Pons, Meininger, Nikkinen, Vugdalič, Tarricone - Kmet.

raiken started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. Lineup: Martínez Herrero - Mauro, Marzuqi, Sümer, Džiovenis - Boire, Sinai, Heller, Beng Jun - Vogelaar, Ya'akobovitch.

raiken tried to focus their attacks down the middle. Some good play on the left wing created an opportunity for the visitors 18 minutes into the match, and G. Vogelaar wasn't about to let it go by. He got past the defenders and fired a shot that the keeper just missed. 0 - 1 for the visitors. With 36 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed C. Beng Jun of raiken to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 0 - 2. E. Mauro could have put his team up another goal 43 minutes into the game, after a rush down the left, but his closing shot hit the post. The crowd groaned when Ó. Pons, having maneuvered his way down the right, fired the ball just wide and missed a great opportunity to reduce the deficit for Broich-Peel. 0 - 2 was the score after the first half. Possession in this half belonged to raiken, who controlled the ball 58 percent of the time.

Content with how the game was proceeding, the raiken coach let L. Keng Kwang replace A. Marzuqi after 60 minutes. The coach of raiken was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 65 minutes, V. Ingelstrand came on for G. Vogelaar. After 72 minutes of game time, E. Mauro had an excellent opportunity to add to the visitors' lead, clipping a volley hooked in from the right, but F. Catello was in the right place and tipped the ball over for a corner. Given a free kick close to the byline, raiken tried a move that loyal fans may recognise from training. A pass to the side pulled the defence out of position which let C. Beng Jun slip through on goal. He didn't have to break his stride, and slipped the ball past the keeper to make it 0 - 3, 76 minutes into the game. The players of raiken now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle. With 79 minutes played, O. Sinai nearly put the visitors another one up as he broke through in the middle and fired from just outside the box, but his shot passed just over the bar. raiken claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 66 percent.

Most important Broich-Peel player was D. Vojnić. Ó. Pons turned in a dismal performance, however. The most dominating raiken player was without a doubt E. Mauro. İ. Sümer on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 3.
