Knoop had a fantastic opportunity to put bannati up another goal 86 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. A speedy charge from the left side of the field increased the lead of bannati to 4 - 0 as K. Mpasinas finished it off competently, firing in from an acute angle. bannati claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 65 percent.

Most important bannati player was A. Mikó. J. Thieleke was a disappointment, however. V. Warpelin performed admirably for TCT. On the other hand, T. Nurmenniemi's play was disheartening. The match ends 4 - 0.
