After a rather tough play, Decathlon Dudes's Cezary Bara got a free kick in the 18th minute. 21 minutes into the match, Marciano Hendrickx had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Tadej Pogačar.

Rodriguinho de Castro was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Marciano Hendrickx sent away a hard shot on goal in the 47th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. The Decathlon Dudes players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Beek City were winning 1-2.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Henrik Larsson was the one to do the kick off.
