Spectators: 147 (Terracing: 111, Seating: 34, VIP seats: 2) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Andréas Strömberg kicked off to start the match. After 4 minutes of play, Forever Råsunda AIK's Andréas Strömberg made it 1-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Okan Mondragon was left in no man's land by his defense there! In the 12th minute the ball was on its way in behind Forever Råsunda AIK's goalkeeper Karl-Johan Granberg, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. After a rather tough play, FC SASA ILIC's Hayrettin Polatalp got a free kick in the 12th minute. Sadettin Tunçkol fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 18th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Karl-Johan Granberg having to interfere. Anders Boström's late challenge caught a FC SASA ILIC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Anders Boström helped the player get up and apologised. Sadettin Tunçkol struck a weak shot in the 21st minute. Karl-Johan Granberg didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for FC SASA ILIC. In the 25th minute, Aytek Şükür hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. An unexpectedly hard shot by Sadettin Tunçkol in the 27th minute of play forced Forever Råsunda AIK's goalkeeper Karl-Johan Granberg to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. A collision led to FC SASA ILIC getting a freekick after 31 minutes play. Sadettin Tunçkol hit a great ball. Forever Råsunda AIK's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Nils Kilberg in the 34th minute. In the 37th minute of the match, Andréas Strömberg got a very nice opportunity to score, but Okan Mondragon was well-placed and pushed the ball away from the goal at the left post. After a defensive mix-up in Forever Råsunda AIK's zone, Sadettin Tunçkol stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Karl-Johan Granberg came out of the goal and Sadettin Tunçkol tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Hayrettin Polatalp kicked well hit freekick during the 44th minute of the match. Okan Mondragon showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Pär Sundberg, who was totally free with the ball in the 47th minute.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Sadettin Tunçkol was the one to do the kick off. After a defensive mix-up in FC SASA ILIC's zone, Pär Sundberg stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Okan Mondragon came out of the goal and Pär Sundberg tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Håkan Aronsson recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 61st minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 63rd minute, Andréas Strömberg ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Okan Mondragon was frozen by the shot and now it was 3-0. An unexpectedly hard shot by Andréas Strömberg in the 66th minute of play forced FC SASA ILIC's goalkeeper Okan Mondragon to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 69th minute Andréas Strömberg shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Okan Mondragon saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 85 played minutes Forever Råsunda AIK got a freekick which was hit by Pär Sundberg. Many of FC SASA ILIC's supporters were seen to leave the ground early as it became clear their team was going to lose. FC SASA ILIC may have spent more time on the ball, but Forever Råsunda AIK were more willing to take their chances and they walked away with the win.
