Due to an all-day shower, the spectators got to see a match on a pitch-turned-bog. The wet pitch made it difficult for technical or quick players to stand out. For once, the players relying on physical strength gained the upper hand. The following players took the field: Flego - Awamleh, Amezqueta - Lizarzaburu, Qoraich, Blotto, 宽翊 (Kuanyi), Azócar - Garcés, Sáenz, Siemianowski.

Lineup: Germanakos - Keng Chuan, Hutter - Ferzan, Thach, Kwang Tse, An Keng, Khairul - Chitre, Ze Han, Reece.

Both teams came out with a similar approach to the match, having chosen to start with a 2-5-3 formation. It was an obvious ambition of Grilled to play a wide game with their titanic (15) ability to attack down the wings. Elegante broke through on the left after 3 minutes, with Hans 'El Gringo' Azócar firing at an impossible angle to give the home side a 1 - 0 lead. The visitors wouldn't quit and after 22 minutes, Chan Ze Han evened things up as he finished off a perfect pass from the right. 1 - 1. Grilled took the lead after Chan Ze Han curved a free kick into the net. 1 - 2. After 35 minutes, Mieczysław Siemianowski rushed down the middle past the away team's defenders to score the 2 - 2 goal. It was 2 - 2 at the break. Now to our celebrity commentator for a hot take. Over to you, Snoop! Some quick footwork on the left side of the field 47 minutes into the match left Grilled's Egemen Dinçer Ferzan completely free to score. 2 - 3 for the visitors. Egemen Dinçer Ferzan made one of his many fine passes from the wing into the middle with 56 minutes played. Lim An Keng went to the air and hit the ball firmly with his forehead for Grilled. 2 - 4. With the clock showing 60 minutes, the fourth official held up the substitution board. Mohd Marzuki Khairul looked to see that it was his number in red, so he made his way over to the sideline and swapped out for Federico Parada, though he would have liked to continue. As the 60 minute mark approached, the Grilled manager decided it was time for a substitution. Gandhik Chitre reluctantly made way for Orest Tokarz. After 67 minutes, a mistake by the home side's left defense allowed Damian Hutter to get through. He outclassed the home side's keeper, adding another goal for the visitors. 2 - 5. 68 minutes into the game a free kick by Chan Ze Han found its way right through the home side's poorly assembled wall, making Grilled's lead 2 - 6. One, two, three goals! That completed a hattrick for Chan Ze Han. AH! AH! AH! Grilled's Chan Ze Han received a ball slotted perfectly through the home side's central defense after 79 minutes, and chipped it past the helpless keeper to increase the lead to 2 - 7. The away fans won't regret traveling for this one! Elegante reduced the lead to 3 - 7 after 80 minutes when Nicola Blotto got the best of a lazy ball floated in from the left side. After several obvious shirt pulling incidents, Grilled's Chad Thach got himself booked. After 85 minutes, the Grilled coach wanted to see a new face on the field, waving Joe Reece off. Ibnou Balde took his place. As the match nears its end, the referee deemed it appropriate to add 3 minutes as stoppage time. The match ends 3 - 7. Looks like Nate Silver was right again - his prediction that Grilled would have 56 percent possession in this half was spot on!

Elegante's top performer was clearly Iván Sáenz. Good thing Hansel Amezqueta isn't a horse, because he'd surely be sent to the glue factory after that performance. Grilled's best player was Chan Ze Han. Speaking of stinking up the place, Damian Hutter sure smelled like the bottom of Batman's shoe after a night of crimefighting in Gotham.
