After an opening flurry of chances on both sides, it was the goalie of the visiting team Zajac who was busier in the 18th minute; however, the score was opened by the Bystrica side in the 21st minute, when Ďurica beautifully steered an indirect shot just inside the post. At the end of the first half the team from under the Urpín mountain could have increased their score, but Volešák took care of dangerous shots by Ďuriš and Pečovský. The home team was trying to attack but could barely penetrate through concentrated defense of their rivals. And so they hardly got any chances.
This typical play of the poor quality match continued after the sides changed. The Trenčín offensive endeavour was collapsing, the guests sometimes threatened with fast counter-attacks, but in this phase only the hard shot by Pečovský in the 62nd minute got any attention. The Bystrica team secured their deserved victory in the 88th minute, when first Kulík’s direct shot almost scratched the post and shortly after the duo Hučko – Palic broke free and finished with a goal into an empty net by the latter. In extra time, after another foray into the disorganized Trenčín defense, Hučko made the result even prettier.
