35385 fans braved the pouring rain at Langoliers Stadium. Terje Johansen was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Agustín Paiaro and Illarion Shostak. Langoliers tactics involved an interesting 5-4-1 combination. Starters: Ardalı - Znagovanu, Varzaru, Protasov, Kydland, Diaur - Bajo Fernández, Bulgaru, Cojuhari, Butcari - Datelinka.

Latic decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. They fielded: Gruber - Janković, 睿方 (Ruifang), van IJzerloo - Leenheer, Parisi, Tengelei, Malagón, Bastos - Haagsman, Zeininger.

The referee showed Langoliers's C. Znagovanu the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. It was 0 - 0 at the break. Latic claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 53 percent.

Latic's R. Bastos could have put the guests one up after 51 minutes after chasing a through ball from the right, but N. Ardalı was as fast as a snake, grabbing the ball from under his nose. After 52 minutes, the defensive line of Langoliers created a counterattack through the middle that gave M. Datelinka a good look at the goal, but his shot glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. 57 minutes in, the unpredictable M. Leenheer of Latic turned and curled the ball towards goal, but it flew inches wide of the post, almost taking out a member of the crowd! After 58 minutes, I. Parisi made a complete fool of himself when he presented the ball to the feet of M. Datelinka who smashed it into the open goal for Langoliers. 1 - 0. Latic had most of the ball, with 55 percent of possession.

Langoliers's top performer was clearly L. Varzaru. I. Bajo Fernández was a disappointment, however. The most dominating Latic player was without a doubt M. Zeininger. 周. 睿方 (Ruifang) on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 0.
