The whistle blowing up was also the opening for the game to happen dramatically and unexpectedly. Right from the first minute, the M3 players have continuously raised the squad, got close to the enemy and launched the attack. With a lineup of the experienced players, the E1 players have struggled against a strong and aggressive strike from their side. However, nothing seems to stop the "youth" of the M3 players when E1 conceded two goals. The match ended in a 2-0 win over M3.
