The Polish champions didn’t began their performance too well; KIF took the lead but a couple of Szmal’s saves allowed Kielce to equalize and they started gaining advantage right away. It may have seemed that leading 8:5 in 15 minute was an indication of one-sided game but Danes just made Kielce let their guards down and went ahead. This time it was Kolding’s goalkeeper Hvidt who was in the foreground and his team got the halftime lead (13:14 for Kielce).
The second half was even more tight than the first one. Both teams surged back and forth, not being able to stabilise the result. The situation started getting more and more tense when with 10, 5, and finally 2 minutes to go the level was still draw. However, for these last moments it was Kielce that pushed ahead. When in the 60. minute Zorman gave his team 2-goal lead, the match was decided and 2 points went to Kielce.
