Sunny 01-04-2009 07.45
It was an exceptionally sunny day for the crowd of 1979 that came out to A Song for XX Stadium. Hamazaki had chosen a strategic 4-5-1 formation. They fielded: Rimpeläinen - Simarmata, Marbun, Sapta, Hardiyanto - Hutabarat, Hartikainen, Husaini, Mainaky, Cerqueira - Källberg.

A 3-5-2 alignment was the formation of choice for UNITED. Starters: Major - Frank, Devos, Dwi - Kudji, Razi, Dujšin, Peschorn, Veldscholten - Davidsson, Name.

For their match strategy, Hamazaki had decided to use their ability to counter-attack whenever possible. UNITED mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. After 12 minutes, UNITED put themselves up by 0 - 1, as Stefan Davidsson finished off a strike from the left with a real cannon placed at the far post. After 14 minutes, UNITED's Thijmen Veldscholten burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 2. Sunaryanto Sapta's technique was perfect on this sunny day and led to some amazing plays that fooled the defence. The referee signalled a penalty 20 minutes into the game following an offence just inside of the box. Stefan Davidsson knocked home the 0 - 3 goal just outside the reach of the goalkeeper. By now, UNITED were drawing the troops back in order to defend their lead. UNITED's Dedek Dwi got himself booked for a foul. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 3. UNITED claimed to be the more dominant force in the game, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 73 percent.

The fierce heat made it important to save breath, and after a few swift runs Edi Hardiyanto found it hard to get back into position. Stefan Davidsson could have added one to the visitors' lead if his free kick had gone just a little lower. 61 minutes in, Hamazaki's Antero Källberg received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. The home keeper was stunned 67 minutes into the match when he misjudged the free kick by Stefan Davidsson and dived in the wrong direction. The visitors increased the lead to 0 - 4. At that, Stefan Davidsson was noted down for a hat trick. After 68 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for Stefan Davidsson who increased UNITED's lead to 0 - 5. UNITED held the ball, with a clear 74 percent of possession.

Most important Hamazaki player was Makmur Simarmata. Iman Marbun on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important UNITED player was Jurica Razi. Hariman Name on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 5.
