The Piraeus team won 3-0. All the goals were scored in the first half by Moustaklis (in the first minute), Yfantis (ninth minute) and Kotridis (44th minute). In that half, the Patras team lost a sure goal in the 10th minute when Chrysanthopoulos shot wide just three meters from the goalpost. In the second half, the Patras team put up a good fight, kept its goal post safe and launched several offensives. The members of the Olympiakos team, which retained its lead in the second half, were Kouroklatos, Rossidis, Germenis, Xanthopoulos, Soulis, Kotridis, Kokkinakis, Ifantis, Moustaklis, Darivas and Drosos.
