Emiliano Galdi took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Zula Munko, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After 7 minutes of play, XoDe's Bernard Ostrowski made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.
