In a tightly contested match, SC Verl edged out FC Hansa Rostock 1-0, with the game's only goal coming in the second half after 1 hour, 20 minutes, and 3 seconds of play. Despite being outperformed in terms of total corner kicks, with Hansa Rostock earning nine to Verl's four, the home team capitalised on their chances more effectively. SC Verl displayed a disciplined defensive performance, focusing on limiting clear-cut opportunities for the opponents.

Both teams were aggressive, but Hansa Rostock's discipline faltered as they accumulated five yellow cards, compared to SC Verl's three. This increase in fouls disrupted their rhythm and arguably affected their ability to maintain pressure. Such disruptions were evident in the second half when the game saw a flurry of card offenses, including a succession of yellow cards for the away side between the 52nd and 55th minute. The tension and interruptions in flow clearly benefitted Verl as they retained composure.

The interplay and teamwork of SC Verl were more cohesive, especially as the match progressed into the latter stages. Their organized defense and strategic counter-attacks were significant, especially considering they managed to score despite fewer attacking set-plays, such as corner kicks. On the other hand, FC Hansa Rostock's inability to capitalise on their greater number of corner opportunities highlighted a lack of clinical finishing or creative execution in the final third. This, combined with their deteriorating discipline, critically undermined their potential for securing any points from the encounter.
