The match featured multiple scoring opportunities, with Istria's Danish forward Emil Frederiksen scoring twice (30th and 58th minutes) and Lokomotiva's Athanasios Triantafyllou, Dušan Vuković, and Ivan Katić scoring the other goals. The game was officiated by Patrik Pavlešić from Duga Resa. Despite challenging conditions, both teams displayed strong performances, with Istria's young squad averaging just 21 years old showing promise. The match included notable moments such as a controversial disallowed goal for Istria's 17-year-old Nikola Škafar Žužić due to a VAR review, which ruled out an offside call involving Frederiksen.
