Following the kickoff, the Barça Legends team had control, but the host team had better opportunities and capitalized by going ahead thanks to Collins Mbesuma.
Every move Ronaldinho made was met with applause, and he nearly scored on a rebound of his own free kick.
As the Zambian team took the lead into halftime, he also produced a strong cross that Kluivert met with his head. However, the home team's goalkeeper was equal to both of Kluivert's attempts.

After the half, it was much of the same, with the Barça Legends team controlling play but unable to score.
