Cohen FC 1 took an early 2-0 lead in sets, displaying dominance against their rivals. In the third set, they held three set and match points, but the experienced Swakopmund side fought back to win 13-11.

Spurred on by their home supporters, Swakopmund FC 1 pushed their opponents to the limit before Cohen FC 1 called a timeout at 6-1. However, the defending champions managed to hold firm and retain their crown.
