The match was significantly characterized by the flurry of goals, aggressive playing styles indicated by the number of fouls, and mistakes indicated by the high number of yellow cards.

The home team took an early lead scoring in just over six minutes into the first half, but they could not maintain the lead as the away team levelled the score just over two minutes later.
