The weather was pretty good, and a crowd of 12000 had shown up at Cedar for the match. Juan José Anguita was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Klaus-Walter Würzburger and Magnus Månsson. Altai decided to use a 4-4-2 set up. They fielded: Bērziņš - Gurulev, Lelikov, Mineev, Rakevich - Lukichev, Yaworskyy, Filimonov, Bugaev - Ben, Khabalov.

Uijane had chosen a strategic 4-5-1 formation. Lineup: Oruç - Arenas Arnal, bin Naib, Codesal, Sennbrücke - Caby, Landau, Lanhoso, Leonardi, Ernes - Quintero.

The home crowd cheered when, after 13 minutes, I. Quintero's charge up the middle resulted in the keeper making one of his best saves of the day. Uijane's J. Caby was dominating his wing and kept sending fine balls into the opposition's box - I. Quintero managed to volley one of them into the net to make it 0 - 2 after 19 minutes. The visitors almost increased their lead after 22 minutes when a sweetly hit free kick looked like it was heading for the top corner. However the keeper managed to get a fingertip to it, sending it over the bar. Uijane increased their lead after 28 minutes when A. Arenas Arnal broke through on the right, upping the score to 0 - 3, much to the home crowd's dismay. A drive down the left side allowed A. Arenas Arnal to get in close and score another goal for Uijane after 29 minutes, taking the score to 0 - 4. This third goal completed a hattrick for A. Arenas Arnal. By now, the players in Uijane felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. With 31 minutes played, V. Lelikov of Altai fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 4. Uijane claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 82 percent.

Quintero of Uijane received a yellow card after 63 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. C.

Leonardi left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 67 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. M. Gjermandsen was the replacement. J. Caby sailed high above the opponents as he headed in a corner kick from A. Arenas Arnal after 69 minutes of play, making the score 0 - 7. With 73 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed M. Gjermandsen of Uijane to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 0 - 8. With 76 minutes played, Uijane put themselves up 0 - 9 after an attack from the right, caused by a defensive blunder. The scorer was K. Ernes.
