Plains Rangers 3 Rotorua United 1.

 |
| Yes there are more injured on the sideline than out on the pitch! Here are Josh Hyndman (back to camera, as usual) - broken ankle, Jeremy Hawkes - broken knee, and Ben McPherson - badly sprained ankle. Ben has been playing for Whakatane this year, but came along to watch his old team win. | Spectators Lucy, Jeremy and Josh enjoy the battle. |
 |
 |
| Caleb Hyndman lays the ball back for Bas Overdevest. | Caleb has another 'aaarghhh that was close' moment!! The Rotorua keeper has made another stop. |
 |
 |
| Right winger Dean Butterworth cuts inside. | Two goal scorer James Mitchell brings the ball down. Harley and Skins keep an eye on him from the sideline. |
 |
 |
| James looks up, and sees the keeper off his line. Will he shoot or cross to Caleb? | Jono Whitaker passes the ball in to Richie Nillesen. Jono had another good game in defence. He also got a yellow card. |
 |
Richie lines up a long shot. |
