National Stadium
Spectators: 1028 (Terracing: 772, Seating: 236, VIP seats: 20)
The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Meelis Mihklisaar took the kick off in the first half of the match. Leif Biörling blasted a shot towards the goal in the 3rd minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Hardi Villand having to make a save. Hardi Villand made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Leif Biörling in the 3rd minute of play. 6 minutes into the match, Leif Biörling notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of U21 Estonia's Hardi Villand. Hardi Villand was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. U21 Sweden's attacker deliberately struck the ball against an opponent to win a corner for his team. The corner was taken by Daniel Sundgren in the 11th minute. Kurt Bjursell made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Santi Mina in the 14th minute of play. U21 Sweden's Kurt Bjursell played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Meelis Mihklisaar in the 16th minute of play. Indrek Keskrand's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Kurt Bjursell firmly grabbed it by the left post. Hardi Villand made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Mikko Rotendahl in the 21st minute of play. Kurt Bjursell made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Sulev Roolaht in the 24th minute of play. After 32 minutes of play, U21 Estonia's Meelis Mihklisaar made it 1-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Kurt Bjursell was left in no man's land by his defense there! Indrek Keskrand fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 35th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Kurt Bjursell having to interfere. Hardi Villand made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Leif Biörling in the 38th minute of play. 41 minutes into the game, U21 Sweden's Leif Biörling nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot. Hardi Villand made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 1-2. Sulev Roolaht's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Kurt Bjursell firmly grabbed it by the left post. The crowd was extremely unhappy with the home team's performance in the first half. They were losing 1-2.

The wind increased when Mikko Rotendahl made the kick off in the second half. After a defensive mix-up in U21 Estonia's zone, Mikko Rotendahl stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Hardi Villand came out of the goal and Mikko Rotendahl tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 55th minute Santi Mina shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Kurt Bjursell saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The supporters of U21 Estonia booed when U21 Sweden was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 56 match minutes in a wonderful position. Baltzar Belkå didn't get a good kick on the ball. U21 Sweden made a substitution. Osvald Pihl replaced Robin Lindsten. U21 Sweden's Felix Belkå was substituted for Leif Biörling. Baltzar Belkå hit a great freekick 57 minutes into the match. Riho Reismaa made in the 68th minute of the game a throw-in that took a bad bounce and was taken care of by U21 Sweden's Karl Lundin. 69 minutes into the match, U21 Estonia's goal looked a bit too open when Felix Belkå came free, but Hardi Villand reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Felix Belkå's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Hardi Villand read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 71st minute of play. 71 minutes into the game, Felix Belkå recieved a splendid long ball, split the defenders, and gently placed the ball to the left of Hardi Villand. Felix Belkå showed that you don't have to tear a hole in the net to score, 1-3. U21 Sweden's Frank Nordkvist was substituted for Jon Sarvik. After a defensive mix-up in U21 Estonia's zone, Felix Belkå stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Hardi Villand came out of the goal and Felix Belkå tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. U21 Sweden's Kurt Bjursell played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Indrek Keskrand in the 86th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Virgo Hobune in the 88th minute of play forced U21 Sweden's goalkeeper Kurt Bjursell to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Meelis Mihklisaar's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Kurt Bjursell read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 91st minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Indrek Keskrand in the 94th minute of play forced U21 Sweden's goalkeeper Kurt Bjursell to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. A collision led to U21 Sweden getting a freekick after 95 minutes play. Mikko Rotendahl hit a great ball. The U21 Estonia manager could be seen shouting at his players as they walked down the tunnel after the match. He was clearly angry that they had squandered their superior possession, allowing U21 Sweden to win.
