Both teams demonstrated a fair level of attacking prowess with both sides managing to convert two of their opportunities. There was no lack of aggression in this match, which is evident from the high number of fouls committed by both teams.

However, Fortuna managed to contain Arminia's forward line for the remainder of the half.
