A scorching day at The Extra Stadium, where 790 spectators were in place for today's match. Philip Benner was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Cipriano Costa and Raphaël Dijoux. It was a sunny day and the Technical players could roll the ball around with ease. Those that had to chase after the ball found the weather less appealing, it especially stymied the game of Powerful and Quick players. jmj_emmanuel's starters: Yun Lai - Cao, Wen, San - De Su, Cheng Huat, Chin, Azman - Ali, Vang, Shin.

Grilled fielded: Vadalà - Mangoye, Keng Chuan - Teck Fu, Thach, Chitre, Khairul, Ferzan - Jian Hui, Chuan Yong, 田宮 (Tamiya).

jmj_emmanuel started the game in a 3-4-3 formation, whereas Grilled Birds lined up in a 2-5-3 formation. jmj_emmanuel tried to focus their attacks down the middle, taking advantage of their outstanding (10) level with that tactic. Grilled took the lead after 4 minutes making the score 0 - 1. 冬馬 (Toma) 田宮 (Tamiya) placed the ball out of reach for the home side's keeper after a fine move, coming in from the left. jmj_emmanuel's Josh Shin was shown a yellow card after 7 minutes for slicing down an opponent. Had it not been for one of the home defenders, Gandhik Chitre would have put Grilled up another goal 16 minutes into the match with his audacious lob from the right wing. With 17 minutes played, Yee Jian Hui of Grilled fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. Some fine movement on the left led to a Grilled goal after 23 minutes, making it 0 - 2. Gandhik Chitre was noted down as the scorer. 0 - 2 was the halftime score. Grilled claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 67 percent.

46 minutes into the game, Grilled wanted to bring some new energy to their game. Chad Thach gave Chia Kwang Tse a quick hug as he left the field. After 46 minutes, Grilled felt secure enough to make a tactical change. Hwang Teck Fu and Gandhik Chitre assumed each others positions on the field. 46 minutes into the match, the referee signalled for a Grilled substitution. Radovan Jaška came on for Yee Jian Hui. Joseph San charged down the left and looked sure to score for jmj_emmanuel 67 minutes into the game, but his shot went just wide. After 70 minutes, the Grilled coach wanted to see a new face on the pitch, waving Teo Chuan Yong off the field. Moey Xin Seng took his place. As Teo Chuan Yong left the field, the coach signaled to Moey Xin Seng to be the new set pieces taker. Moey Xin Seng was handed the Grilled captain's armband. The visitors' 冬馬 (Toma) 田宮 (Tamiya) took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 72 minutes into the match. 0 - 3 for Grilled. A slight injury to his left calf muscle meant Mohd Marzuki Khairul had to leave the match early. It happened after 73 minutes. Grilled had no available replacements, leaving the team a man short. Central attacks were the recipe of the day for jmj_emmanuel, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity. After 75 minutes, Josh Shin had a good opportunity to reduce the scoreline for jmj_emmanuel with a chance created through the middle, but wasn't cool enough. The ball went miles over the bar. Grilled increased the lead to 0 - 4 as Moey Xin Seng scored from the penalty spot, putting the ball in near the top left corner. The players were tired, but when the referee announced that there would be 2 minutes of added time they, nonetheless, welcomed the extra opportunity to make an impact. Grilled increased their lead after 89 minutes when 冬馬 (Toma) 田宮 (Tamiya) broke through on the right, upping the score to 0 - 5, much to the home crowd's dismay. That made three goals for 冬馬 (Toma) 田宮 (Tamiya) and he was marked down for the hat trick. The match ends 0 - 5. Possession in this half belonged to Grilled, who controlled the ball 67 percent of the time.

jmj_emmanuel's top performer was clearly Derrick Chin. Huang Yun Lai turned in a dismal performance, however. Most important Grilled player was Moey Xin Seng. Atang Mangoye was a disappointment, however.
