e weather was pretty good, and a crowd of 12000 had shown up at West Palace for the match.
Abba Ibn-Bashir was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Saad Tahiri and
Nevzat Gürol. The derby had been the talk of
Jurong all week and fans of both teams could be seen throughout the stadium. Corsairs tactics involved an interesting 4-4-2 combination. The following players took the field: Yuh - Thanh-Duy, Zhi-Yong, bin Mohd Hanifa, Mingjiz - Zhu, Peng-Kit, Wai-Lam, Hong-Tuan - bin Man, Ho-pyong.
Grilled started off with a 3-5-2 lineup. Starters: Seng - Bakhtiar, bin Ahmad, Awyong - Shaahee, bin Mohd Kassim, 勇航 (Yonghang) , Ying Lee, 福泉 (Fuquan) - Bacelar, Wan Kang.

Hilal Bakhtiar. Some fine movement on the left led to a Grilled goal after 31 minutes, making it 0 - 3.
田. 勇航 (Yonghang) was noted down as the scorer. The opposing supporters gave the referee an earful when he only gave
凌. 福泉 (Fuquan) from Grilled a yellow card after a mistimed challenge from behind 32 minutes into the game. That was far too lenient! The home crowd was not impressed when
Chow Ying Lee came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 36 minutes. Grilled were now up 0 - 4. A drive down the left side allowed
Djan Bacelar to get in close and score another goal for Grilled after 37 minutes, taking the score to 0 - 5. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 5. Grilled had most of the ball, with 77 percent of possession.
Content with how the game was proceeding, the Grilled coach let
梁. 力勇 (Liyong) replace
凌. 福泉 (Fuquan) after 46 minutes. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents,
Wu Ho-pyong got himself booked. The manager of Corsairs was not happy. After 63 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed
Djan Bacelar to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 0 - 6. At that,
Djan Bacelar was noted down for a hat trick! Confident in their lead, Grilled's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. After 64 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for
梁. 力勇 (Liyong) who increased Grilled's lead to 0 - 7. The Grilled players could smell victory in the air.
Leong Wan Kang wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for
Gleb Dorogan after 70 minutes.

Hilal Bakhtiar increased the visitors' lead by putting a volley away after a pass from the right. 0 - 8. With 84 minutes played, a quick exchange of passes on the left wing freed
Gleb Dorogan of Grilled to slip through the defence and score another goal for the visitors. That made the score 0 - 9.
Rashid bin Ahmad wanted to play on, but the Grilled coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 85 minutes into the game by
Walter Ross. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Grilled, with 81 percent of the ball.
The most dominating Corsairs player was without a doubt
Mohd Zaidil bin Man.
Zong Yuh turned in a dismal performance, however. Most important Grilled player was
Shiya Shaahee.
Dan Seng was a disappointment, however. The match ends 0 - 9.
