had rained all day, but 12000 hardy fans still made it out to MellonUtd Bulldog Arena. Marcos Inausti was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Srećko Ognjanović and Arni Ruusila. A 4-4-2 alignment was the formation of choice for MellonUtd. The following players took the field: Chao Yew - Chin Wen, Wai Yuen, Shen Jion, Kang Xin - Hidzan, Ming tzong, Cheng Ho, Eng Kim - Chee Da, Chee Hui.

Grilled had chosen a strategic 3-5-2 formation. They fielded: Dias Paes - 达荣 (Darong) , Talib, bin Mustapa - 剑勇 (Jianyong) , Branbilla, Han Kok, MacKinnon, Torsson - Rotteveel, bin Ku Zainol.

Grilled saw most attack opportunities on the wings. The boggy pitch disrupted the game, especially for technical players like 封 (Feng) 达荣 (Darong) 15 minutes into the game, Martin Torsson almost gave the visitors the lead, as he clipped a delicate lob over the keeper, but the ball glanced harmlessly off the crossbar. MellonUtd almost scored after a counterattack 16 minutes into the match, but Mah Chee Da took a shot from the left that landed harmlessly in the side of the net. The guests took the lead 26 minutes into the match, after a right-side attack resulted in Subri bin Ku Zainol scoring the 0 - 1 goal. Maikel Rotteveel's lightning pace was too much for Ouyang Wai Yuen who could only look on as the Grilled player blasted one home. 0 - 2. There wasn't much opportunity for rapid movements on this wet day, which hindered Maikel Rotteveel in particular. The visitors' Nawaz Talib took advantage of an error due to a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and central backs 40 minutes into the match. 0 - 3 for Grilled. A drive on the left side allowed Grilled's Matthias Branbilla to get in close and score a goal after 41 minutes, leading to 0 - 4. The structure of the game started to change as Grilled decided to pull back and meet their opponents in their own half. The home crowd was not impressed when Maikel Rotteveel came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 43 minutes. Grilled were now up 0 - 5. 0 - 5 was the score after the first half. Grilled held the ball, with a clear 78 percent of possession.

The away team's Quah Han Kok took advantage of a mistake on the home side's right after 65 minutes which increased Grilled's lead to 0 - 6. Grilled's Martin Torsson received a play slashing through the home side's central defense after 74 minutes, and chipped it past the keeper to score the 0 - 7 goal. The home crowd was not pleased with that one. Grilled's Nawaz Talib was shown a yellow card after 75 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Mah Chee Da was the unlucky victim and couldn't continue the game, so MellonUtd's Yap Fu Kim had to come off the bench. After 84 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed Maikel Rotteveel to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 0 - 8. This third goal made a hat trick for Maikel Rotteveel. With 85 minutes played, Grilled put themselves up 0 - 9 after an attack from the right, caused by a defensive blunder. The scorer was Subri bin Ku Zainol. Quah Han Kok increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley shot away on a pass from the right. 0 - 10. MellonUtd's Teo Cheng Ho refused to leave the field after injuring his achilles tendon after 87 minutes. The forty-five minutes were dominated by Grilled, with an impressive 79 percent possession of the ball.

MellonUtd's top performer was clearly Ong Chee Hui. Kang Chao Yew turned in a dismal performance, however. The most dominating Grilled player was without a doubt Valdir Dias Paes. Badrul Afzan bin Mustapa was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 10.
