The following players had been chosen: Dias Paes - 达荣 (Darong) , Lik-Tsun, Árva - Penati, Branbilla, MacKinnon, Spirig, Han Kok - Rotteveel, bin Ku Zainol.

Penguins decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. Lineup: You De - Amora, Geosits, Berman - Crescentino, Lubawski, Sun Nee, La Salvia, bin Husin - Kronabether, Mowat.

The wings were the focus of most of Grilled's attacks on this day. This was a good period for the visitors, with several opportunities to take the lead, particularly when Su Sun Nee slipped through the defense on the right to come up alone against Valdir Dias Paes, but the home side's keeper showed his lightning reflexes. With 17 minutes played, the home side managed to get a 1 - 0 lead as Ciro Penati flipped the ball in after a cross from the right. 17 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defence had to look on as Subri bin Ku Zainol dashed through, knocking home 2 - 0 for Grilled. With 36 minutes played, Arkadiusz Lubawski had a fantastic opportunity to reply but his shot flew harmlessly into the side-netting of the goal. Penguins breathed new life into the game with an opportunity to reduce the score after 37 minutes, but the home side's defenders cleared the ball on the line, after a long shot coming in from the left rebounded off the crossbar. It was 2 - 0 at the break. Penguins claimed to be the more dominant force in the game, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 52 percent.

After 57 minutes, Quah Han Kok put Grilled ahead 3 - 0 when he rose to head in a hooked ball, the result of an effort from the right side. At this point in the game, defending their lead became the main priority for Grilled. The visitors replied 79 minutes into the game, scoring the 3 - 1 goal, as Hennes Kronabether dashed up the middle, easily lobbing the ball over the home team's keeper. Fredy Rincón was called on to replace Penguins's Doron Berman after 85 minutes following a nasty collision. In a rapid move 89 minutes into the match, Kyle Mowat of Penguins lost his man, passed the ball to the unmarked Hennes Kronabether who easily hit it home for the 3-2 goal. Penguins levelled the score after 89 minutes to make it 3 - 3, as Su Sun Nee struck home after a fine midfield combination through the middle, leaving him completely unmarked. Penguins's Ashaari bin Husin was shown a yellow card after 89 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Some great play up the middle by Grilled led to a chance for Matthias Branbilla to get the go-ahead goal after 89 minutes, but the shot hit the crossbar. After 89 minutes, Grilled's Ciro Penati swiftly ran past Su Sun Nee to put away the 4-3 goal. An equalising goal seemed certain after 89 minutes when Arkadiusz Lubawski came down the left side, but Valdir Dias Paes just managed the save. Penguins held the ball, with a clear 52 percent of possession.

Valdir Dias Paes performed admirably for Grilled. 封 (Feng) 达荣 (Darong) on the other hand, had a terrible day. Penguins's best player was Hennes Kronabether. Fredy Rincón was a disappointment, however. The match ends 4 - 3.
