5 minutes into the game,

The visiting
K. Preiszinger was booed thoroughly by the home crowd 15 minutes into the game, after he broke through the middle and scored, resulting in the visitors taking the lead. 0 - 1 was the score.
O. Ferdari got a fingertip on
S. Germond's shot from the left 17 minutes in, and managed to keep the visitors from going up another goal.
P. Hallfeldt of kekd took advantage of a mistake on the home side's right after 30 minutes which increased the away team's lead to 0 - 2.
With 37 minutes played, seemingly due to lack of experience,
J. Sahikoski needlessly tripped an opponent just outside the penalty area, but the free kick that followed didn't succeed.
0 - 2 was the score after the first half.
kekd enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 55 percent of possession.

B. Weichselbraun came on for
V. Dīzenbergs.
51 minutes into the match,
B. Weichselbraun came through the middle and almost added to his team's lead, but the shot went wide.

B. Wasserkörben's finish was met by the reaching hands of the keeper.
70 minutes into the game, kekd worked the left side industriously creating several opportunities to add to their lead, but just couldn't apply the finishing touch.

B. Weichselbraun was noted down as the scorer.
With 74 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed

The match ends 0 - 5.
