Pressing was the tactic of the day for Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy. After 2 minutes, Qaziozia put themselves up 0 - 1, as Y. Vanev finished off a strike from the left with a real cannonball of a shot. 5 minutes into the game, Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy seemed a little tentative in their play as their organization fell to inadequate. 7 minutes into the game, Qaziozia seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a solid level of organisation. The pressing tactics used by Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy were successful as the ball remained close to the half way line at all times. Still trailing on the score board, Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy adjusted their tactics after 26 minutes. C. Gutiérrez de Solar had a quick chat at the side line, then switched positions with G. Frutig. It was 0 - 1 at the break. Qaziozia claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 70 percent.

Despite his frustration resulting in the smashing of a few teacups, the coach of Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy was able to get his message across, and raised Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy's organisation to solid. The coach gave his players an extra tactical briefing during the break, and after that Qaziozia had excellent organisation. Against a lesser team, Qaziozia could very well have succeeded with their smart indirect free kick routine after 51 minutes. A trio of passes took the ball all the way past the defenders, but by then the intended recipient was already blocked off and the keeper could make a leisurely save. Qaziozia will have to do without I. Pavlov for a time, due to a bad foot injury at the 59 minute mark. He was substituted by 姚. 祥君 (Xiangjun). After 61 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for M. Gaitanopoulos who increased Qaziozia's lead to 0 - 2. After this, you could see that the players of Qaziozia were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. 71 minutes in, Qaziozia appeared unsure on how to play and their organisation was only solid. T. Lieske behaved like an inexperienced youth player after 72 minutes as he gave the ball away to G. Frutig. Lucky for him though, there was no goal. With 76 minutes played, Qaziozia put themselves up 0 - 3 after an attack from the right, caused by a defensive blunder. The scorer was 姚. 祥君 (Xiangjun). After 79 minutes, there was a bit of a mixup on the field as Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy found themselves out of position and their organisation level dropped to passable. With the scoreboard showing that 80 minutes had been played, Qaziozia nearly put themselves up another goal after P. Waalberg came through on the left. Fortunately for the home crowd, the keeper made the save. 84 minutes into the game, Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy had difficulty finding their positions and their organisation dropped to weak. Qaziozia had most of the ball, with 72 percent of possession.

I. Leriche performed admirably for Fenerbahce_Cumhuriy. T. Raappana was a disappointment, however. Most important Qaziozia player was 姚. 祥君 (Xiangjun). On the other hand, E. Middenmeer's play was disheartening. The match ends 0 - 3.
