Spectators: 9239 (Terracing: 6930, Seating: 2125, VIP seats: 184) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Joachim Hylland made the kick off which started today's match. Lars Nekstad showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Joachim Hylland, who was totally free with the ball in the 11th minute. 12 minutes had been played when some careless play by Kåsmolia's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Andreas Stålesen was slow to take the kick. During this time KEZ Toppfotball's players had a chance to rest. After taking down the ball on KEZ Toppfotball's corner Andreas Stålesen fired away a hard shot, but the defenders efficiently covered the most dangerous angles and Lars Nekstad quite easily take care of the ball. Rune Muggerud kicked well hit freekick during the 16th minute of the match. In the 18th minute Kåre Breistein shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 王斌城 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Lars Nekstad stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Joachim Hylland's shot from short distance in the 21st minute. Remigio Orlanda kicked well hit freekick during the 27th minute of the match. The audience thought a goal was coming when Jonathan Staff got free with Lars Nekstad in the 30th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Lars Nekstad didn't succeed in stopping the ball in the 33rd minute, which inside left pole to 1-0. An unexpectedly hard shot by Arty Benson in the 38th minute of play forced KEZ Toppfotball's goalkeeper 王斌城 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by Stein-Roger Oksnes in the 41st minute of play forced Kåsmolia's goalkeeper Lars Nekstad to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Joachim Hylland hit a great freekick 43 minutes into the match. Eskil Stenberg's late challenge caught a KEZ Toppfotball's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Eskil Stenberg helped the player get up and apologised. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Kåre Breistein to make the kick off. Lars Nekstad took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Ørjan Skogsrud, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 67 minutes Kåsmolia's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Andreas Stålesen who took care of the corner kick. The corner ended in Andreas Stålesen almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but Kåsmolia's Lars Nekstad did a great save. In the 74th minute, Joachim Hylland made a precise shot to the right of Lars Nekstad. Kåsmolia's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 2-0. Ørjan Skogsrud scored 4-0 in the 91st match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Lars Nekstad, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. After a rather tough play, Kåsmolia's Halvdan Ramsland got a free kick in the 94th minute. Andreas Stålesen was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 95th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. The crowd rose to their feet and cheered when the referee blew the final whistle. KEZ Toppfotball had won after a very even match.
