Spectators: 7678 (Terracing: 5759, Seating: 1766, VIP seats: 153) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Wieslaw Lampe took the kick off in the first half of the match. The audience thought a goal was coming when Wieslaw Wiater got free with Aureliusz Fafinski in the 8th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Roch Olchawa took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Aleksander Giertych, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After a rather tough play, ACR SA's Bernard Badanowski got a free kick in the 11th minute. The audience was convinced that Aleksander Giertych's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Roch Olchawa was relentless in the 20th minute of the game. In the 21st minute of the match Sosnowe Klimaty got a corner. ACR SA's goalie ran out to the linesman to protest the call, but the linesman resolutely pointed his flag at the cornerflag. Maksymilian Ferfecki ran over to the corner to take the kick. Aleksander Giertych sent away a hard shot on goal in the 28th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The supporters of Sosnowe Klimaty booed when ACR SA was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 35 match minutes in a wonderful position. Tobiasz Dzerwucki didn't get a good kick on the ball. Roch Olchawa came out of the goal in the 41st minute to try and stop a shot by Sosnowe Klimaty's Maksymilian Ferfecki. But to his dismay, Maksymilian Ferfecki quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. If Philip Collin had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After the first half Sosnowe Klimaty were leading 0-1. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Philip Collin was the one to do the kick off. An unexpectedly hard shot by Philip Collin in the 53rd minute of play forced Sosnowe Klimaty's goalkeeper Aureliusz Fafinski to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 57 minutes into the match, ACR SA's goalkeeper Roch Olchawa had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Aleksander Giertych. Wieslaw Lampe scored 0-2 in the 58th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Roch Olchawa, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Antoni Tylinski hit a great freekick 61 minutes into the match. Aureliusz Fafinski showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Antoni Tylinski, who was totally free with the ball in the 65th minute. 66 minutes had been played when some careless play by Sosnowe Klimaty's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Kuddusî Tozan was slow to take the kick. During this time ACR SA's players had a chance to rest. Wieslaw Kochanowski tried to clear up in front of the goal, but didn't succeed and rather the ball rolled into the own goal to the right of a despaired Aureliusz Fafinski. An unnecessary self made goal, 1-2 in the 67th minute. Wieslaw Lampe's shot when he came free in front of the goal in the 70thth minute, Roch Olchawa skillfully showed off with a save to what seemed to be an obvious goal. The audience was convinced that Wieslaw Lampe's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Roch Olchawa was relentless in the 74th minute of the game. Sosnowe Klimaty's Franciszek Babicki was first on the ball when the corner was shot and he dangerously headed the ball towards goal, but Roch Olchawa in the goal jumped up to prevent it from getting in. Sosnowe Klimaty's Aleksander Giertych got a good chance for a goal in the 77th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Roch Olchawa showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Aleksander Giertych in the 80th minute of the match. With an all-out effort, Sosnowe Klimaty's Roch Olchawa threw himself towards the right post 81 minutes into the match and grabbed hold of the ball from Aleksander Giertych, which otherwise would have been placed in the net. An unexpectedly hard shot by Szymon Gorzkiewicz in the 86th minute of play forced Sosnowe Klimaty's goalkeeper Aureliusz Fafinski to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Aleksander Giertych was extremely unlucky when he, in the 93rd minute, took a shot that hit the right post and went out. Wieslaw Lampe received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 94th minute. Roch Olchawa tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Sosnowe Klimaty's supporters were very happy and cheered loudly because their team had won after a very close match.
