91 spectators had come to Hou-United Arena this cloudy day. Elie Rougerie was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Tambet Vaagen and Aviram Levi. Hou-United started off with a 4-4-2 lineup. They fielded: Siev-Khong - Soo-Yong, Dinh-Sang, Zhong-Loon, Yuk-Tung - Yong, Zi-qiang, Wing-Yiu, Ke-Yong - Olsson, Yung-chia.

Grilled had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. Lineup: Semprún Balenciaga - Ong, Tuan-Mu, Siu-Cheung - Attimarad, bin Abdul Hamid, Seng-kar, Magnusson, Hua - Chiew-Yen, Yunos.

Grilled's Xing Hua got himself booked for a foul. 21 minutes into the game, Liao Siev-Khong had to leave the pitch due to a knee injury. In came Mar Yu-Wen. Many thought ZhangCai Yung-chia ought to have been awarded a penalty shot 30 minutes into the game, as he went down trying to dribble around Tomás Semprún Balenciaga after a determined run through the middle. Grilled took the lead 34 minutes into the game, scoring the 0 - 1 goal after some elegant plays down the middle. Ungku Ismail bin Abdul Hamid was the scorer. With 37 minutes played, Gao Seng-kar nearly put the visitors another one up as he broke through in the middle and fired from just outside the box, but his shot passed just over the bar. 0 - 1 was the halftime score. Hou-United claimed to be the more dominant force in the game, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 58 percent.

The referee showed Grilled's Tan Ong the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. ZhangCai Yung-chia pulled a real crowd pleaser as he, after 61 minutes, wove through the guests' entire central defence and put the 1 - 1 equaliser away. Hou-United made a bid to take the lead as a ball coming in on the right hand side left Ni Zhong-Loon completely alone with keeper Tomás Semprún Balenciaga, who made a spectacular block. They were singing the praises of Jens Olsson 72 minutes into the match after his speculative chip from just outside the centre part of the opponent's penalty area found its way over the visitors keeper to make the score 2 - 1 for Hou-United. Hou-United claimed to be the more dominant force in the game, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 61 percent.

The most dominating Hou-United player was without a doubt ZhangCai Yung-chia. Guan Zi-qiang on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important Grilled player was Chen Chiew-Yen. Svarpati Attimarad was a disappointment, however. The match ends 2 - 1.
