It was an exceptionally sunny day for the crowd of 54239 that came out to griffin park. Fredrik Skjerping was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Arnold Nijholt and Francis Vandecasteele. superbees had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Qyqalla - Conraads, Cicogna, Špecián - Prunier, Rieser, Velzunza, De Capite, Pries - Hansson, Pelli.

Teamzone decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. They fielded: Berdejo - Ritto, Ebels, Korkeamäki - Melone, Komínek, Obłąkowski, Pratscher, Dvorževskis - Mamin, Corvaja.

superbees used their ability to concentrate their attacks in the middle of the pitch, rather than on the wings. After 2 minutes, T. Pelli sprinted between the opposing defenders and squared the ball, but the keeper deflected P. Hansson's shot. Some good play on the left wing created an opportunity for the visitors 11 minutes into the match, and V. Dvorževskis wasn't about to let it go by. He got past the defenders and fired a shot that the keeper just missed. 0 - 1 for the visitors. 15 minutes in, and superbees were able to score the equalising goal to make it 1 - 1 when P. Hansson picked up a pass coming in from the right and chipped it past the away team's keeper. R. Guinness was called on to replace superbees's C. De Capite after 19 minutes following a nasty collision. 1 - 1 was the score after the first half. superbees enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 52 percent of possession.

The intense heat forced A. Mamin into making some errors because he couldn't seem to keep up with the others. A questionable penalty 63 minutes in gave the home side the lead, 2 - 1. The visitors' goalie didn't stand a chance as T. Pelli knocked the ball home. With 65 minutes played, the Teamzone coach decided a substitution may help turn the game around. A. Phillips came on, N. Korkeamäki had to leave the fray. The home team will be cursing A. Mamin for weeks; he finished off a great pass from the left, knocking it past the keeper without a problem. The match was level at 2 - 2 after 75 minutes. A. Phillips's technique was perfect on this sunny day and led to some breathtaking tricks that bamboozled the defence. The home side put themselves ahead 3 - 2 after 81 minutes courtesy of a breakthrough from P. Hansson, who scored with a stunning volley following a cross from the right wing. superbees had most of the ball, with 54 percent of possession.

superbees's top performer was clearly P. Hansson. On the other hand, R. Pries's play was disheartening. Most important Teamzone player was D. Corvaja. G. Melone on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 3 - 2.
