Spectators: 158 (Terracing: 119, Seating: 36, VIP seats: 3) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Lennart Sörman kicked off to start the match. Sonny Allbom's late challenge caught a INIXET BK's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Sonny Allbom helped the player get up and apologised. Sonny Allbom hit a great freekick 3 minutes into the match. Through an outstanding action, after 11 minutes, Kåre Blom successfully got his hands on the ball before it slid into the goal at the right post. Jimmy Ståhlberg showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Lennart Sörman in the 13th minute of the match.

The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

When Sonny Allbom came up free with the goalie in the 27th minute, the Melchester Rovers fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Sonny Allbom couldn't finish the play. 35 minutes into the match, Melchester Rovers's goal looked a bit too open when Per-Arne Alström came free, but Jimmy Ståhlberg reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

The coaching staff of INIXET BK protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Magnus Skålberg had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. The supporters of Melchester Rovers booed when INIXET BK was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 89 match minutes in a wonderful position. Magnus Skålberg didn't get a good kick on the ball. Rasmus Wenerdahl kicked well hit freekick during the 91st minute of the match. Per-Arne Alström received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 93rd minute.

The away crowd was happy to see their team win after a very tight game.
