ouds darkened the skies at The Dome Of The White Lion as 54810 spectators turned up for the match. Regino Puccio was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Antonio Medel and Alex Barzewisch. Singapore tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. The following players took the field: Xiaolun - Khoi-Khoa, Shiu-Fai, Kok-Peng - Shui-Ngok, bin Hamir, Kiong Kiong, Wenghae, Quang-Nhut - bin Md Johadi, Rodostoglou.

Grilled tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. They fielded: Dias Paes - Zywczyn, Lik-Tsun, Talib - Edmond, MacKinnon, Spirig, Han Kok, Paullin - Rotteveel, bin Ku Zainol.

Singapore clearly preferred using their ability to attack in the middle. A mistake by the home side's central defence after 9 minutes allowed Quah Han Kok to score the 0 - 1 goal for Grilled. The referee showed Singapore's ZhangCai Khoi-Khoa the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Chew Xiaolun got a fingertip on Maikel Rotteveel's shot from the left 15 minutes in, and managed to keep the visitors from going up another goal. 21 minutes into the match, Maikel Rotteveel came through the middle and almost added to his team's lead, but the shot went wide. Singapore tried to even things up by sending a long play towards the centrally placed strikers, but the visitors' defence got the best of this rather direct style of play. Halftime score was 0 - 1. Grilled held the ball, with a clear 53 percent of possession.

Singapore evened the score after 52 minutes when Vaios Rodostoglou netted a free kick for 1 to 1. The guests took the lead 59 minutes into the match, after a right-side attack resulted in Dani Spirig scoring the 1 - 2 goal. The home crowd cheered when, after 62 minutes, John MacKinnon's charge up the middle resulted in the keeper making one of his best saves of the day. Grilled's Lorenz Paullin made use of his speed to get free of the defence, but he still couldn't get a shot off 64 minutes into the match. A thrilling play through the middle 70 minutes into the match gave Grilled's Subri bin Ku Zainol a chance to increase the lead, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 1 - 3. The game had been on for 76 minutes when Lorenz Paullin broke through on the right, upping the score for Grilled to 1 - 4, much to the home crowd's dismay. 84 minutes were showing on the scoreboard when Singapore's ZhangCai Khoi-Khoa received his second yellow card and was sent off. Grilled claimed to be the more dominant force in the game, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 54 percent.

Singapore's top performer was clearly Chew Xiaolun. However, Loh Quang-Nhut made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Grilled player was without a doubt Quah Han Kok. On the other hand, Sylweriusz Zywczyn's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 4.
