Grilled Birds fielded a 2-5-3 lineup. For FC Air Hydrous, the formation of choice was 5-2-3. Grilled used their titanic (15) ability to concentrate their attacks in the middle of the pitch, rather than on the wings. For their match strategy, Hydrous had decided to use their divine (20) ability to counter-attack whenever possible. Grilled had a good opportunity to attack on the wing, but remembered their instructions to go for middle attacks. Hydrous were great at switching from defence to attack, and after 11 minutes, İlham Novruzov swept through the middle on a counterattack, making the score 0 - 1. A quick counter attack by Hydrous forced the opponent's defender to give away a freekick. Jens von Appen-Keilholz was allowed to take it quickly by the referee, much to the dismay of the goalkeeper who wasn't prepared. 0 - 2! The goal to make it 0 - 3 was scored by İlham Novruzov after 28 minutes, following an opportunistic counterattack down the middle by Hydrous. Hydrous's İlham Novruzov was shown a yellow card after 32 minutes for slicing down an opponent. 34 minutes into the game Grilled broke through on the left wing and Kalki Parvathaneni managed to reduce the lead to 1 - 3. Halftime score was 1 - 3. Grilled claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 79 percent.

Chia Kwang Tse would have preferred to play on, but his coach decided otherwise. Mohd Marzuki Khairul entered the game for Grilled as the match clock showed 46 minutes. Maybe due to the uphill battle the team was facing, the Grilled manager looked to change things around. After 46 minutes, Hwang Teck Fu and Gandhik Chitre swapped positions on the field. The referee showed Grilled's Aw Keng Chuan the yellow card after a particularly nasty challenge. Raemon Heijltjes showed why he is feared on the counterattack, breaking through in the middle and scoring for Hydrous after 72 minutes to make the score 1 - 4. Grilled's Kalki Parvathaneni got himself booked for a foul. Tomas Cervellone went down after twisting his left ankle after 75 minutes, and had to leave the pitch. Gioacchino Troncon had already been warming up, and came on for Tomas Cervellone. As the 80 minute mark approached, the Grilled coach decided it was time for a substitution. Bilal Mohammad Harun reluctantly made way for Moey Xin Seng on the pitch. After 81 minutes, an incisive pass through the middle gave Gioacchino Troncon a chance to increase the lead for Hydrous, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 1 - 5. After 82 minutes, the Hydrous coach wanted to see a new face on the pitch, waving Sakin Donat off the field. Haiko Lazar took his place. Augie Malherbe was the new captain of Hydrous - handed the armband by the departing player. 85 minutes into the game, Grilled wanted to bring some new energy to their game. Atang Mangoye gave Bhavya Panigrahi a quick hug as he left the field. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Hydrous coach let Hagen Merckel replace Jorge Mejías after 85 minutes. As the match nears its end, the referee has deemed it appropriate to add 3 minutes as stoppage time. The match ends 1 - 5. Grilled had most of the ball, with 78 percent of possession.

Most important Grilled player was Chan Ze Han. On the other hand, Manuel Vadalà's play was disheartening. The most dominating Hydrous player was without a doubt İlham Novruzov. Gioacchino Troncon on the other hand, had a terrible day.
