Although the day before the match Kotorowski was struggling with a serious cold, in 9 and 15 minute  of the game he showed his very good goalkeeper skills restraining an action firstly from Kucharczyk, Legias winger, and secondly from Kosecki. In 18 Dwaliszwili, Legias forward, crossed the ball from the left side and closing Kucharczyk did not manage to find the way to the already empty goal by a shot from his head. A few minutes later Lechs coach Mariusz Rumak was forced to make a first substitution: Lechs only forward on the pitch, injured Ślusarski was replaced by Teodorczyk. Then the game undergo a change and Lech had its chances too. Lechs captain, Murawski took a precise shot from an acute angle, but Legias goalkeeper was on his place. In the end of the second half Lech more often visited Legias side of the turf. The corner kicked from Lovrencsics could end with a goal for Lech, but Kędziora, who entered a game because of another early substitution, changing injured right defender Ceesay, slightly mistaken with his header.  Just before the break Teodorczyk has a chance, but his shot was to lightly and both teams came down to locker rooms with a clean sheet.

Legia had to wait for its chance to 70 minute, when after a shot from Kucharczyk, the ball accidentally found the way to Saganowski, however a devoted intervention from Kotorowski and Henriquez saved Lech from lossing a goal. Moments later, Furman crossed from a corner and Vrdoljak shot was stopped just on the line by Lechs captain - Murawski. In Lechs penalty box boiled again in 77 minute.
