The supporters gathered at the stadium at Cicha Street did not see any goals in the first half. During this part of the game, not too many scoring opportunities were created, although more dangerous situations were happening close to Pareiko’s goal. It was the second half that brought in excitement and controversy. The team led by coach Fornalik started to play faster and began to attack as soon as the second half had started. In the 54th minute, a controversial situation occurred. Referee Szymon Marciniak awarded a penalty kick to the home team after an alleged foul by Cezary Wilk on Marek Zieńczuk. The successful executor was Rafał Grodzicki.

From the 63rd minute, Wisła played with ten men after Gordan Bunoza had been sent off. According to the referee, he denied an obvious goalscoring opportunity by fouling Jankowski. Playing in advantage, Ruch prevailed until the end of the match, although they could not score another goal as a result of excellent performance by Pareiko. In the 88th minute the White Star’s goalkeeper saved Straka’s attempt from a few meters. In the 94th minute, he had another save on Lewczuk’s attempt. In the extra time, Diaz was booked for the second time. As a result, Wisła had to finish the game with nine men.
