dynamo demonstrated their creative tactics on the field. krasnik's H. Benzeş was shown a yellow card after 2 minutes for slicing down an opponent. 6 minutes in, krasnik's F. Krekelbergh received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. krasnik had a good opportunity to take the lead as I. Zafirović came up the left side, but he struck the ball weakly and it went straight into the arms of C. Serrano Rubiera. After 14 minutes, the defensive line of dynamo created a counterattack through the middle that gave D. Petta a good look at the goal, but his shot glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. After 26 minutes, the home side was awarded a penalty. The visitors protested wildly but the referee was adamant. O. Dalum easily put the ball away to give the lead to krasnik. 1 - 0 Some brilliant football from the visitors' right wing resulted in a levelling of the score as dynamo's D. Petta put the ball in the onion bag after 30 minutes to make it 1 - 1. krasnik's M. Häkkilä made use of his speed to get free of the defence, but he still couldn't get a shot off 36 minutes into the match. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 1. Possession in this half belonged to krasnik, who controlled the ball 53 percent of the time.

After 46 minutes, the krasnik coach wanted to see a new face on the pitch, waving F. Tóth off the field. L. Teixeira Ramos took his place. At 53 minutes played, M. Häkkilä came in from the right with the intention of giving krasnik the lead, but his rocket of a shot rattled the crossbar. The most controversial moment of the game was likely the penalty given after 77 minutes. dynamo's J. Valderrama kept his concentration, despite the upset crowd, and calmly put the ball past the keeper to make the score 1 - 2. dynamo's G. Brown had to watch the rest of the game from the sidelines, after twisting his ankle with 81 minutes having been played. M. Sunsing was the replacement. krasnik claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 57 percent.

krasnik's top performer was clearly H. Benzeş. D. Roguszewski turned in a dismal performance, however. The most dominating dynamo player was without a doubt M. Pehuenche. On the other hand, J. Nuñez's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 2.
