La Noon went into the match, third in the playoff with a match in hand, whereas Petra Crocs were first at the top. The away team were bolstered by the inclusions of their forward sharpshooters, Kerol, Ijan and Alex, while Petra Crocs fielded the same players (think so) they had before the Playoff started. The first significant chance of the match came in the 12th minute when following an exchange of passes, the La Noon midfileder (can't remember who) fed the ball to Kerol, but Kerol's attempt from an angle was blocked by the goal post. Nine minutes later Yusuf tapped the ball in from a Kerol low cross from the left, but it went straight to the goal post, again. Come on laaaaaa. However Petra Crocs found their goal minutes later, the 27th minute to be exact (think so). A Petra Crocs low cross from the left was not cleanly dealt by La Noon players, and was tapped in by the Petra Crocs forward, Boy. 1-0. In the 33rd minute, La Noon were denied an equaliser when Lann unleashed a storming shot from outside the box and the ball flew inches away towards the upside of the post. An introduction of Alex Suhek into the game was clearly worth it as a set-up ball from Ijan Januzaj inside the penalty box was blasted in with the outside feet of Alex Suhek. The keeper was absolutely hapless. 1-1. Five minutes from the halftime whistle, Yusuf find his team's second and his first of the Playoff goal. He received the ball from the hardworking Kerol and took a 'banana shot' from the outside of the box and the keeper gave his everything to save the flying ball but failed, resulting to a 1-2 goal standing. Right off the second half whistle, Budi almost added La Noon's third when his towering header from a corner was went upside of the goal post. Three minutes later Alex tried to do the Budi's thingy, also by heading the ball from a corner, but just to went wide. After a series of venomish attack from La Noon, Lann finally found the third for the away side. A foul made by the Petra Crocs has earned a freekick from the very right side of the penalty box, which is Lann has waited for so long to take this free kick, and seconds after that the ball curled into the far post to make it 1-3. But La Noon ambition is far too great to just settle for a 1-3 win, when a goal-hungry Kerol succesfully made a beautiful turn after received a short pass from Pejul, and bombarded a 345km/h shot into the back of the net. Petra Crocs 1-4 La Noon. At some points, La Noon showed some Tiki Taka in the middle of the midfield but did not do much to add another goal, and moments later the whistle was blown by the referee. La Noon added three precious away points, and increase the chance to go top.
