Nejma saw most attack opportunities on the wings. With 4 minutes played, the home side managed to get a 1 - 0 lead as W. Bordewijk flipped the ball in after a cross from the right. After 24 minutes, the visitors levelled the scores after K. Davidsen made it through the middle and struck home to make it 1 - 1. After some beautiful movement down the left wing, D. Oosterbosch scored for Nejma putting them ahead 2 - 1, after 25 minutes. B. Schröder increased the lead for Nejma to 3 - 1, 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! The referee showed punte's D. Reekers the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. D. Oosterbosch slipped and slithered in the wet grass. His usual rapid runs were nowhere to be seen today. M. Lei should probably have put his team up another goal after 36 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by E. Teekens kept the visitors in the game. punte had to make a substitution after 39 minutes. A. Salinas limped off the field and was replaced by A. Engelander. The teams went for the halftime break at 3 - 1. Possession in this half belonged to Nejma, who controlled the ball 67 percent of the time.

M. Simon wanted to play on, but the Nejma coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 46 minutes into the game by H. Buttner. W. Bordewijk left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 46 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. D. Gemmel was the replacement. After 46 minutes, punte switched D. Reekers with L. Guichelaar, hoping for a quick impact on the pitch. The bench was restless, and with 46 minutes passed punte's coach gave R. Rypulak the opportunity the player had been hoping for. E. de Wijk reluctantly left the field. G. Jeanquart was handed the punte captain's armband. Things were deteriorating for the away team as Nejma scored another to make it 4 - 1 after a left side attack resulted in a goal for W. Diepenbrock after 73 minutes. Coming from the right, B. Baltink almost managed to score another goal for Nejma, but his header was tipped over the bar by the visitors' keeper. E. Fuentes Ros was uncomfortable with the soggy pitch as he couldn't move the ball around with his usual grace. D. Gemmel could have increased the lead after 79 minutes, but his shot hit the post after a nice combination in the middle of the park. After 83 minutes, the away team failed to deal with a good exchange of passes on the right, and I. van Voorst gave the Nejma supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 5 - 1. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Nejma, with 64 percent of the ball.

Nejma's top performer was clearly E. Fuentes Ros. H. Buttner turned in a dismal performance, however. The most dominating punte player was without a doubt L. Guichelaar. However, T. Mäennenä made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 5 - 1.
