Starters: Pirozzi - Boon Ying, Landell, Rivas - Sörensson, Stöbel, Yehezkel, Hörner, Boon Mee - Eggér, van Steenwijk.

Grilled started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. Starters: Dias Paes - Zywczyn, Lik-Tsun, Talib - Jie Siong, Paullin, MacKinnon, Han Kok, van Liere - bin Ku Zainol, Rotteveel.

Ulrik Landell's name was chanted throughout the stadium after his goal up the middle after 10 minutes gave mad2cow the 1 - 0 lead. Grilled's right side looked dangerous 17 minutes in, but Fausto Pirozzi made a good save on Lee Jie Siong's hard shot to the top corner. Liu Boon Mee was ever so close to scoring after an excellent corner was perfectly redirected by Alexis Rivas, but the ball went into the frame. A cross coming in on the right hand side left Maikel Rotteveel alone in front of the goal after 24 minutes but his shot was woeful. The visitors refused to give up and, after 25 minutes, Subri bin Ku Zainol scored the tying 1 - 1 goal as he finished off a perfect pass from the right. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 1. The forty-five minutes were dominated by Grilled, with an impressive 52 percent possession of the ball.

55 minutes into the game, Subri bin Ku Zainol almost gave the visitors the lead, as he clipped a delicate lob over the keeper, but the ball glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. The most controversial moment of the game was likely the penalty given after 71 minutes. Grilled's Sylweriusz Zywczyn kept his concentration, despite the upset crowd, and calmly put the ball past the keeper to score the 1 - 2 goal for the visitors. 85 minutes into the match, John MacKinnon came through the middle and almost added to his team's lead, but the shot went wide. This half belonged to Grilled, who controlled the ball 52 percent of the time.

Most important mad2cow player was Sylvester van Steenwijk. However, Fausto Pirozzi made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Grilled player was without a doubt Valdir Dias Paes. On the other hand, Sylweriusz Zywczyn's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 2.
