The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. After 4 minutes, Kristo Karind mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Kyu JK and the SK Leigri players grew even worse after the yellow card. Kristo Karind hit a great freekick 4 minutes into the match. In the 5thth minute of the game Andre Eenmäe who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Kyu JK's Markus Tuur was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. In the 10th minute, Andre Eenmäe got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal.

Bert Stüf received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 19th minute. Markus Tuur tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 20 minutes into the game, one of Kyu JK:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. The supporters of SK Leigri booed when Kyu JK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 26 match minutes in a wonderful position. Ergo Ellermaa didn't get a good kick on the ball. 30 minutes into the match, SK Leigri's Bert Stüf sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Markus Tuur narrowly saved just below the crossbar. Kaspar Paabo's late challenge caught a SK Leigri's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Kaspar Paabo helped the player get up and apologised. After a defensive mix-up in Kyu JK's zone, Bert Stüf stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Markus Tuur came out of the goal and Bert Stüf tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 37th minute Uuno Luite shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Markus Tuur saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Jan Hanni hit a great freekick 40 minutes into the match. Andre Eenmäe blasted a shot towards the goal in the 44th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Markus Tuur having to make a save. Andre Eenmäe might have been able to make a better finish in the 47th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Markus Tuur. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Andre Eenmäe ran back to his position shaking his head. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Kristo Karind to make the kick off. Elmut Leemet's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Maarek Ülisoo read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 52nd minute of play. Elmut Leemet kicked well hit freekick during the 54th minute of the match. 59 minutes into the match, Bert Stüf had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Markus Tuur.

After 69 played minutes Kyu JK got a freekick which was hit by Valmar Jänes. Kaspar Paabo was shown his second yellow card after 71 minutes, following a rather ugly tackle on opponent.
