Rovaniemen PS secured a 2-1 victory over Mikkelin Palloilijat in what was a tightly contested Ykkonen match. Mikkelin Palloilijat took an early lead, opening the scoring just before the 40-minute mark, while Rovaniemen PS equalized early in the second half. The home team's decisive second goal came midway through the second half, highlighting their resilience and determination to capitalize on their chances as the game advanced.

The significant turning point in the match was the discipline, or rather the lack thereof, exhibited by Mikkelin Palloilijat. They received four yellow cards and one red card, which severely hampered their performance and ability to play cohesively as a unit, especially as the match progressed. The lack of discipline translated into heightened pressure on key players, limiting their attacking prowess and exposing them to Rovaniemen PS's counterattacks.

Despite Rovaniemen PS having only one corner kick compared to Mikkelin Palloilijat’s six, they managed to make better use of their limited set-piece opportunities. Rovaniemen PS's ability to convert their shots into goals was further aided by a disciplined game plan, staying structured and minimising defensive errors. Mikkelin Palloilijat struggled to maintain their early domination, and their high foul rate disrupted their attacking rhythm, which, combined with their reduced manpower due to the red card, led to their downfall.
