0 - 1 was the score with 12 minutes played, after Grilled's Lee Jie Siong cut through the central defence and chipped home a goal. Maikel Rotteveel was, after 25 minutes, almost able to extend the visitors' lead with a well placed diving header after the ball had looped into the centre, but home side's keeper Ketumile Tatane made the save. Many in the crowd felt the referee was being too lenient when he only showed Tenochtitlán's Ong Ho Hao a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 28 minutes into the game. A drive on the left side allowed Grilled's Maikel Rotteveel to get in close and score a goal after 33 minutes, leading to 0 - 2. The visitors' Subri bin Ku Zainol took advantage of an error due to a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and central backs 40 minutes into the match. 0 - 3 for Grilled. Confident in their lead, Grilled decided to play a more defensive game at this point. The home crowd was not impressed when Maikel Rotteveel came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 43 minutes. Grilled were now up 0 - 4. Halftime score was 0 - 4. Grilled held the ball, with a clear 57 percent of possession.

The game had been on for 62 minutes when Subri bin Ku Zainol broke through on the right, upping the score for Grilled to 0 - 5, much to the home crowd's dismay. An amazing free kick flew past the home side keeper 82 minutes into the match, putting Grilled ahead with the 0 - 6 goal. Maikel Rotteveel was the scorer. That made three goals for Maikel Rotteveel and he was marked down for the hat trick. Ketumile Tatane kept the home side in the game with a magnificent save when Maikel Rotteveel delivered an almost perfect free kick to the far post. A crazy pass by Ong Teck Wei towards his own keeper almost caused a goal for Grilled, but Mohd Firdaus bin Yaacob didn't get the finish right. The forty-five minutes were dominated by Grilled, with an impressive 57 percent possession of the ball.

Tenochtitlán's best player was Norizam Othman. Ketumile Tatane turned in a dismal performance, however. Subri bin Ku Zainol performed admirably for Grilled. However, Mohd Firdaus bin Yaacob made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 0 - 6.
