Grilled 1 - 0 GBR
187 spectators had found their way to Gamma Stadium, despite the heavy rain.
Hans Lunding was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
André Luiz Pinto Jr. and
Luke von Breitungen. Grilled tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. Lineup: Bao-Tam - Alcántara, Tuan-Mu, Dewilde - Dai-Lin, Ju-Hau, Tellskär, Kek-Tjiang, Noor Yadah - Hjortlind, Chiew-Yen.
GBR had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: Vikwald - Shiu-Hun, Rahmgård, Thorkvist - Westerkvist, Hansen, Zhong-Yan, Åhlsjö, Krysiuk - Falkenstål, Ilie.
The visitors were very close to gaining the lead with a wondrous free kick after 12 minutes, but
Hang Bao-Tam made a beautiful one-handed save. Grilled took the lead 23 minutes into the match after a magnificent free kick by
Johan Dewilde that made the score 1 - 0. The referee showed GBR's
Cheng Shiu-Hun the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. 1 - 0 was the halftime score. Grilled held the ball, with a clear 53 percent of possession.
GBR got a chance to level the score as
Peter Hansen suddenly found himself free with only the 'keeper to beat, but the finishing shot hit the bar. With 51 minutes played,
Shen Kek-Tjiang could have brought this one home for Grilled as he charged up on the left, but his hooked ball went just a bit too high. The muddy pitch made the game a gritty affair, which seemed to suit
Jan Åhlsjö just fine. Grilled held the ball, with a clear 51 percent of possession.
Most important Grilled player was
Ma Dai-Lin.
Chen Chiew-Yen was a disappointment, however. Most important GBR player was
Jan Åhlsjö. However,
Dan Ilie made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 1 - 0.
