brilliantly sunny day had enticed a crowd of 3142 to The Cooking Pot. Jarko Haavel was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Narve Halnes and Gian Luca Zambon. Grilled tactics involved an interesting 4-4-2 combination. The following players took the field: Bao-Tam - 辉洪 (Huihong) , Chuan Heng, Seng-Huat, bin Othman - 川城 (Chuancheng) , Siong An, Kok Chuan, 剑勇 (Jianyong) - Hjortlind, bin Yaacob.

buiter had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. Starters: Domburg - Cerdeira, Tubi, Swart - Bagot, Causey, Weggen, Maggi, Heinrichsen - Tambo-ong, van Vreeswijk.

The home crowd was not impressed by the fancy moves of buiter's Darius Heinrichsen after 9 minutes. He converted a pass from the left for a goal, resulting in the visitors taking the 0 - 1 lead. After 23 minutes, buiter were awarded a free kick. Rather than shooting straight at goal, the kicker went for an indirect variant which seemed to take the team mates a bit by surprise. Ariel Tambo-ong did manage a finish, but from an awkward position, sending the ball out of bounds. A drive on the left side allowed buiter's Juan Eduardo Maggi to get in close and score a goal after 24 minutes, leading to 0 - 2. After this, buiter lowered the tempo in order to concentrate on their defensive efforts. Sason Tubi increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley shot away on a pass from the right. 0 - 3. Grilled's Zulkiflee bin Othman was shown a yellow card after 38 minutes for slicing down an opponent. buiter's Ariel Tambo-ong demonstrated his experience by getting into a good position and being the first to react on a rebound off a savage shot that could only be parried by the opposing goalkeeper. His goal 43 minutes into the match made the score 0 - 4. After 44 minutes, buiter's Ariel Tambo-ong burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 5. Many in the crowd felt the referee was being too lenient when he only showed buiter's Simon van Vreeswijk a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 44 minutes into the game. It was 0 - 5 at the break. buiter enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 64 percent of possession.

The home crowd were delighted when Ulf Hjortlind scored with a header after an attack from the right, making the score 1 to 5. But did he use his hand? That'll be one for the pundits to talk about after the game, that's for sure! The game had been on for 58 minutes when Darius Heinrichsen broke through on the right, upping the score for buiter to 1 - 6, much to the home crowd's dismay. 胡 (Hu) 辉洪 (Huihong) wasn't much help defensively. His energy-consuming forward runs proved quite costly in the oppressive heat. buiter's Gaston Causey received a play slashing through the home side's central defense after 80 minutes, and chipped it past the keeper to score the 1 - 7 goal. The home crowd was not pleased with that one. Grilled reduced the lead to 2 - 7 with 82 minutes on the clock when Phua Siong An got the best of a ball floated in from the left. This half belonged to buiter, who controlled the ball 63 percent of the time.

Most important Grilled player was 胡 (Hu) 剑勇 (Jianyong) . Weng Seng-Huat on the other hand, had a terrible day. buiter's best player was Ariel Tambo-ong. Adriaan Swart turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 2 - 7.
