iv id="matchReport"> 7018 fans braved the pouring rain at HitMen Arena. Gregory Vanfraechem was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Petar Súbkov and Preston Dey. The match took place on neutral ground. Kang decided to use a 3-5-2 set up. Lineup: Quintas - Knutsen, Gustavsen, Demedts - Aldro, Hamar, Lim, Bech, 佐藤 (Sato) - Ugoccioni, Martín.

Grilled had chosen a strategic 2-5-3 formation. The following players had been chosen: Tian Han - 福泉 (Fuquan) , Filippone - Ping Shun, Shun An, 长春 (Changchun), Jing Wei, Meyer - bin Mohd Kassim, 勇航 (Yonghang) , Ying Lee.

It was an obvious ambition of Kang to use their ability at attacking on the flanks. M. Aldro, who often relies on his speed, had a rotten day on the drenched grass. 6 minutes into the match Grilled's W. Ping Shun couldn't take advantage of the penalty kick to put his team up by a goal. The corner kick from W. Ping Shun was powerfully met by the head of M. bin Mohd Kassim to make the score 0 - 1. After the ball was lifted in from the left, C. Ying Lee was on his own in the home side's penalty area and should have scored after 14 minutes, but missed, probably due to lack of concentration. Kang's D. Ugoccioni got himself booked for a foul. After 18 minutes, Grilled's C. Ying Lee burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 2. Confident in their lead, Grilled's players relaxed and focused more on defending the lead than increasing it. With 25 minutes played, Grilled put themselves up 0 - 3 after an attack from the right, caused by a defensive blunder. The scorer was 田. 勇航 (Yonghang) . Kang's M. Aldro was dominating his wing and kept sending fine balls into the opposition's box - D. Ugoccioni managed to volley one of them into the net to make it 1 - 3 after 29 minutes. Thighs bulging, W. Ping Shun charged past the weaker players, seemingly oblivious to the rain. An indecisive keeper looked on as a free kick by Grilled's W. Ping Shun put the visitors up 1 - 4 after 36 minutes. 1 - 4 was the halftime score. Grilled enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 68 percent of possession.

The visitors' 田. 勇航 (Yonghang) took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 65 minutes into the match. 1 - 5 for Grilled. M. bin Mohd Kassim received a delicate pass through the home side's central defence after 72 minutes, and chipped it past the flailing keeper to score making it 1 - 6. The Grilled fans went wild, whilst the home fans started to think about leaving early. With 78 minutes played, C. Meyer 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. 朱. 长春 (Changchun) was, after 79 minutes, almost able to extend the visitors' lead with a well placed diving header after the ball had looped into the centre, but the home side's keeper M. Quintas made the save. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Grilled, with 70 percent of the ball.

M. Aldro performed admirably for Kang. However, A. Bech made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating Grilled player was without a doubt M. bin Mohd Kassim. On the other hand, C. Meyer's play was disheartening. The match ends 1 - 6.
