Today, BRACANA's strategy involved concentrating on the flanks for their attacks. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, F. Schwarzbach got himself booked. The manager of Bukmop was not happy. G. Bohlig gave Bukmop the lead as he successfully challenged the guests' central defenders, then slotted the ball into the bottom corner, giving the keeper no chance. 1 - 0 26 minutes into the game, BRACANA seemed a little tentative in their play as their organization fell to inadequate. After 31 minutes, G. Bohlig put Bukmop ahead 2 - 0 when he rose to head in a cross from the right wing. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of Bukmop to 3 - 0 as M. Vranješ finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. 3 - 0 was the halftime score. Bukmop enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 69 percent of possession.

The BRACANA players spent the break getting a rerun of the team's tactical organisation and regained a solid organisation when the game started again. After 46 minutes, BRACANA switched O. Vilaboa with İ. Çalkan, hoping for a quick impact on the pitch. 50 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as M. Cousin broke through, making the score 4 - 0 for Bukmop. By now, the players in Bukmop felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. BRACANA's P. Ramssl was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 62 minutes. G. Bohlig should probably have put his team up another goal after 67 minutes, but some great goalkeeping by İ. Çalkan kept the visitors in the game. G. Bohlig had a fantastic opportunity to put Bukmop up another goal 69 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. 78 minutes into the game, BRACANA seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a weak level of organisation. With 83 minutes played, Bukmop's M. Vranješ almost extended the lead, but his shot from the left glanced off the top of the bar to fall behind the net. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Bukmop coach let J. von Fischer-Treuenfeld replace D. Sussbauer after 89 minutes. Bukmop had most of the ball, with 74 percent of possession.

The most dominating Bukmop player was without a doubt M. Vranješ. W. Strewe turned in a dismal performance, however. BRACANA's best player was S. Gregoroni. S. Valero García was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 0.
