ather conditions were fairly good for football, and
SLY Anfield saw a crowd turnout of 12000.
Arnaud Manuel was the appointed referee with assistance provided by
Hannes Pelletier and
Tobias Skov. RedPhoenix had chosen a strategic 4-4-2 formation. The following players had been chosen: How How - Qiang Kian, 坤仁 (Kunren), Tse Shi, 荣威 (Rongwei) - 慈南 (Cinan), bin Mat Jusoh, 静林 (Jinglin), Yusuf - Choon Ming, 康栋 (Kangdong).

Grilled mostly ignored the flanks in favour of their ability to attack in the middle. Grilled took the lead after 19 minutes making the score 0 - 1.
Djan Bacelar placed the ball out of reach for the home side's keeper after a fine move, coming in from the left. After 27 minutes, Grilled's
Rashid bin Ahmad burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 2. Some fine movement on the left led to a Grilled goal after 28 minutes, making it 0 - 3.
Low Aik Jia was noted down as the scorer. The players of Grilled now seemed to think the job was done and acted more defensively, just waiting for the ref to blow the final whistle. Grilled had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle attacks. After 34 minutes, an incisive pass through the middle gave
Colby Awyong a chance to increase the lead for Grilled, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 0 - 4. 0 - 4 was the score after the first half. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Grilled, with 78 percent of the ball.
田. 勇航 (Yonghang) of Grilled took advantage of a mistake on the home side's right after 51 minutes which increased the away team's lead to 0 - 5. Grilled were determined to attack in the middle, even their wing attacks ended up centrally. The visitors'
Low Aik Jia took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 60 minutes into the match. 0 - 6 for Grilled. After 65 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defence allowed
Pompeo Bellamoli to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 0 - 7. After 67 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for
田. 勇航 (Yonghang) who increased Grilled's lead to 0 - 8. It was showtime for artist
Djan Bacelar who showed off his technical mastery when he rounded
洪. 荣威 (Rongwei) and finished with a goal to make the score 0 - 9. Central attacks were the recipe of the day for Grilled, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity.
田. 勇航 (Yonghang) received a delicate pass through the home side's central defence after 76 minutes, and chipped it past the flailing keeper to score making it 0 - 10. The Grilled fans went wild, whilst the home fans started to think about leaving early. At that,
田. 勇航 (Yonghang) was noted down for a hat trick! Content with how the game was proceeding, the Grilled coach let
Shiya Shaahee replace
Pompeo Bellamoli after 80 minutes.
Hilal Bakhtiar">
Hilal Bakhtiar left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 85 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead.
Walter Ross was the replacement. Grilled claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 82 percent.
RedPhoenix's best player was
Sim Choon Ming. On the other hand,
Fu How How's play was disheartening. Grilled's top performer was clearly
Rashid bin Ahmad.
Hovaness Noubaryan on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 0 - 10.
