Duisburg 3 - 1 Dinamo Moskva
Intertoto 1997 1/2 finals · 1997-07-30 Referee: David Elleray

According to the ref

2nd

Elleray describes the second half as "a most bizarre affair". Dinamo Moscow players did not do anything to get another goal in. At the very end, after two Dinamo players had been sent off for a second bookable offense, Duisburg got a penalty.
Elleray had heard that the Russians didn't want to miss their plane home and an equalizer for Dinamo would have meant the match going into extra time.

1 mistake

According to David Elleray and the UEFA delegate the English referee team made one (1) mistake during this match: they gave a throw-in to the wrong team.
