Dennis Soto, of habouteam, to dash through and score another goal for the visitors. The score was then 0 - 3. The structure of the game started to change as habouteam decided to pull back and meet their opponents in their own half. 41 minutes into the match, the visitors put themselves ahead 0 - 4 as

Erik-Jan Tinbergen made the most of his chance to put his team up by another goal. 0 - 5 for the visitors.
Karl-Hermann Stoyhe of habouteam received a yellow card after 43 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour.

Phua Siong An for diving. After 72 minutes, habouteam's
Nicolas Barbat burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 10. At that,
