For the first time, the red and whites threatened the opponent's goal in the eighth minute of the game, when Jovanović sent a good cross after Petrović's corner, but goalkeeper Cvetković reacted in time. Zvezda took the lead already in the 10th minute of the match through Veljko Žurić. After a crowd in the penalty area of the team from Lucan, Ivković diverted the ball to Žurić, and then from the edge of the penalty area, the defensive midfielder of Crvena zvezda brilliantly caught the ball and gave our team the advantage in the match. The Mladost team equalized in the 19th minute of the game, and the scorer was Draškić.

The red and white could have taken a new advantage in the match in the 21st minute of the game when Mrvaljević brilliantly left the ball for Petrović, who shot with the outside of his boot in a run, but the ball went just past the right post. After exactly half an hour of the game, Jovanović sent a very awkward shot after a great solo penetration, but it was almost inaccurate.

After a combination in a small area between Jovanović and Damjanović, the tall Zvezda striker sent a shot right at the end of the first half, but the ball went over the crossbar of the goal of the team from Lucan. At the very start of the second part of the game, Zvezda striker Damjanović sent a dangerous shot from the left flank, but it was inaccurate. The red and whites reached a new advantage in the game, when Luka Zarić shook the Lucan net from the penalty area with an assist from the left flank of Mrvaljević.

In the 69th minute, Damjanović phenomenally put the ball away for Zarić, and then the dashing winger shot from close range, but Cvetković made another save. Red and white completely controlled the game after the second scored goal. Aleksandar Linta's team had a chance to increase the advantage at the very end of the game, but Petrović was almost inaccurate after the corner. Zarić and Papović combined brilliantly, but Cvetković prevented our cadets from scoring the third goal of the match.
