Spectators: 8514 (Terracing: 6386, Seating: 1958, VIP seats: 170) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Xavies Muñagorri started the match with the kick off. Illimar Valgupera received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 2nd minute. Mait Pihl tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After a defensive mix-up in Capua Whitewolves's zone, Illimar Valgupera stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Mait Pihl came out of the goal and Illimar Valgupera tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Raido Valt's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Mait Pihl read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 13th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Arni Hea in the 15th minute of play forced Capua Whitewolves's goalkeeper Mait Pihl to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Elari Hirv blasted a shot towards the goal in the 16th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Heiko Raal having to make a save. Dune's Heiko Raal proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 16th minute of the match, managed to save Dune from getting a goal against them. A throw-in in the 17th minute of the game was made by Mikk Tõnuri with Peep Teraväe as target, who quickly passed the ball forward. 23 minutes into the match, Dune's goalkeeper Heiko Raal had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Xavies Muñagorri. In the 24th minute of the match Capua Whitewolves got a corner. Dune's goalie ran out to the linesman to protest the call, but the linesman resolutely pointed his flag at the cornerflag. Eugenio Ingegno ran over to the corner to take the kick. Raido Valt received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 28th minute. Mait Pihl tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After having played for 30 minutes, Xavies Muñagorri managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Capua Whitewolves's supporters crossed their fingers, but Xavies Muñagorri was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Illimar Valgupera sent away a hard shot on goal in the 33rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Heiko Raal didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Elari Hirv went, in the 38th minute, to the upper right corner, 2-1 was the resulting score. The audience was convinced that Raido Valt's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Mait Pihl was relentless in the 41st minute of the game. After 41 minutes, Raido Valt made it 2-2 with a short kick to the right side. Capua Whitewolves's Mait Pihl tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. After some fancy dribbling in the 44th minute, Raido Valt managed to get in a good position for a shot. Dune's supporters rose to their feet, but Raido Valt was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Mait Pihl breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 47 minutes into the game, Elari Hirv cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 3-2. Heiko Raal was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 3-2 at half-time.

In the 52nd minute, Raido Valt hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 54th minute Elari Hirv shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Heiko Raal saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

In the 85th minute Elari Hirv shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Heiko Raal saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Heiko Raal showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Elari Hirv, who was totally free with the ball in the 90th minute. Mikk Tõnuri made in the 92nd minute of the game a quick throw-in and Witold Mnich immediately put the ball in play.
