In the opening part of the table neighbors, the Liberec players were more active in the introductory part. In the 4th minute, Vlach was close to scoring, but his hidden shot behind the blue line only stamped the right post of the Karlovy Vary goal.

Vitásek created a good opportunity, who, after renumbering the home defense, ran the pass Šíra nad branku. In the end, the least striking action ended. Faško-Rudáš surprised the goalkeeper Novotný with a shot from practically zero angle in the 15th minute. At home, only the Flek representative got a better chance in the first twenty minutes.

In the 24th minute, when Mikúš was eliminated, the White Tigers went into a two-goal lead after Birner’s shot and Klapka’s backhand hit. After three weaknesses, Energie players were also given a chance to play the first overpowering game after Jelínek’s elimination, which Captain Vondráček took advantage of with a sharp shot from the wing and returned the home team back to the game.

Encouraged, the West Bohemians increased their activity and began to put pressure in front of the visiting goal, which resulted in another of the agile Flek’s opportunities. The Karlovy Vary spectators experienced a tie in the 38th minute, when, after Vondáček’s spotted shot, the puck fell behind Kváč’s back.

The players from the spa town were given a chance to reverse the development of the match at the beginning of the final period, when they played two overtime games. However, they offered a miserable opportunity and the opponent punished them. After Ordoš jumped off the penalty bench, the puck won behind Novotný’s goal and, after Gríger’s selfless pass, the completely lone Faško-Rudáš returned the lead to Liberec in the 47th minute.
–
The West Czechs tried to do something else with the result and the closest to the equalization was Beránek, who just shot a stick after hugging the goal. Not even a two-minute power play helped the home team to score the third goal.
