60021 fans braved the pouring rain at The Cooking Pot. Yaqoob Rasheed Al-Qatby was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Raul Lorincz and Víglundur Ríkarðsson. While a boggy pitch like this was an advantage for physical players, it really didn't help those who relied on speed or technique. All of Jurong was shut down for the day, as fans of both clubs came to the local rivalry game. The following players took the field: Dob - 中北 (Nakakita), Panigrahi - Künzler, Muthyala, Mohammad Harun, Xin Seng, Dong Chu - Ze Han, Egan, Parvathaneni.

They fielded: Hung - Han Chi, Phatak, Mohd Tabrani, Kiong Kian - Hoang, Vavilala, Sze Tse, Kiong Long - Kuan, Jian Woon.

Grilled Birds fielded a 2-5-3 lineup. For ~Pollen~, the formation of choice was a 4-4-2. Grilled took the lead 16 minutes in, after Bilal Mohammad Harun's awkward, but ultimately successful, shot from the right. 1 - 0. With 17 minutes played, a typically brave header by Grilled's Neeraj Muthyala from Cyril Künzler's centered ball looped just over the opposing goalkeeper's desperate reach, making the score 2 - 0. 20 minutes into the match, the visitors' central line of defense had to look on as Bernie Egan ran straight through, knocking one home to make it 3 - 0 for Grilled. Things were going from bad to worse for the visitors. Neeraj Muthyala was able to squirm through the central defense after 21 minutes and score, bringing the lead to 4 - 0. 29 minutes into the game, ~Pollen~ seemed a little tentative in their play as their organization fell to inadequate. After 30 minutes, Grilled's Cyril Künzler ran past Kwek Kiong Kian like he was standing still to put away the 5 - 0 goal. Chan Ze Han increased Grilled's lead to 6 - 0, connecting with a hooked ball from the right. The away fans are claiming handball, to no avail. 39 minutes in, ~Pollen~ appeared unsure on how to play and their organization was only weak. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Grilled's Moey Xin Seng bringing the lead up to 7 - 0. 7 - 0 was the halftime score. Nikki Minaj appeared on the Jumbotron wearing pink lipstick, a towering pile of platinum-white hair, and a pair of soccer balls. A review of the gameplan helped ~Pollen~ get back to a solid organization to start the second half. 46 minutes into the game, Grilled wanted to bring some new energy to their game. Bilal Mohammad Harun gave Chu Xin Lee a quick hug as he left the field. Coming in from the right, Bernie Egan almost managed to score another goal for Grilled, but his header was kept out by the lightning fast reflexes of the visiting keeper. As the 70 minute mark approached, the Grilled manager decided it was time for a substitution. Kalki Parvathaneni reluctantly made way for Prokop Mottl. Grilled solidified their lead at the 79 minute mark, as 悠太 (Yuta) 中北 (Nakakita) snaked the ball through the central line of defense and finished for 8 - 0. With the clock showing 80 minutes, the fourth official held up the substitution board. 悠太 (Yuta) 中北 (Nakakita) looked to see that it was his number in red, so he made his way over to the sideline and swapped out for Hoàng Trung Quá, though he would have liked to continue. Ryan Hung looked to be heading one way when he unexpectedly passed the ball back to Branson Hoang. The move caught everyone off-guard, including his teammate, who wasn't ready and took a heavy first touch. In minute 83, Cyril Künzler put Grilled ahead 9 - 0 with a tremendous free kick. 84 minutes into the game, ~Pollen~ seemed to suffer a certain amount of confusion and they fell to a passable level of organization. 85 minutes into the game, Grilled were awarded a penalty that Cyril Künzler converted into a bigger lead without so much as a how-do-you-do to the visiting keeper. It's 10 - 0 now! That was his third goal of the match - a hattrick for Cyril Künzler! That's the name of the game! The score became 11 - 0 with 87 minutes played, when Grilled were given a penalty. Cyril Künzler made no mistake and increased the home lead. 88 minutes into the game, ~Pollen~ had difficulty finding their positions and their organization dropped to inadequate. It was announced by the fourth official that he estimated stoppage time to be around 3 minutes. This meant there could still be an extra attack or two left in the match! The match ends 11 - 0. Looks like Nate Silver was right again - his prediction that Grilled would have 91 percent possession in this half was spot on!

Most important Grilled player was Moey Xin Seng. Good thing Hoàng Trung Quá isn't a horse, because he'd surely be sent to the glue factory after that performance. ~Pollen~'s best player was Tang Han Chi. Even six year old fans were wincing at the poor play by Branson Hoang today.
