Cieciora Jubileusz started the game in a 3-5-2 formation, whereas Grilled Birds lined up in a 2-5-3 formation. An accurate cross from
Mariusz Niewielski of Jubileusz was met with a wonderful glancing header from
Romuald Kuśnierewicz, hitting the inside base of the post before nestling into the back of the net for 1 - 0. The home team will be cursing
Chan Ze Han for weeks; he finished off a great pass from the left, knocking it past the keeper without a problem. The match was level at 1 - 1 after 13 minutes. Some quick footwork on the left side of the field 23 minutes into the match left Grilled's
Mohsen El Khateeb completely free to score. 1 - 2 for the visitors.
Atang Mangoye was unable to continue, following a slight injury to his left knee after 28 minutes. The replacement for the injured player was
Radovan Jaška. With
Atang Mangoye no longer on the pitch,
Chan Ze Han became the new set pieces taker. A drive down the left side allowed
Chan Ze Han to get in close and score another goal for Grilled after 31 minutes, taking the score to 1 - 3. Grilled's
Chan Ze Han showed his experience after 37 minutes, as he expertly set himself up to take advantage of a rebound off the crossbar, but his shot was tipped harmlessly out of the way. After 39 minutes, Grilled's
Aw Keng Chuan burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 1 - 4. Jubileusz's
Albert Pich was shown a yellow card for standing over the ball and blocking an opponent's quick free kick after 40 minutes.
Chan Ze Han received a delicate pass through the home side's central defence after 41 minutes, and chipped it past the flailing keeper to score making it 1 - 5. The Grilled fans went wild, whilst the home fans started to think about leaving early. This third goal completed a hattrick for
Chan Ze Han. The teams went for the halftime break at 1 - 5. Grilled enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 66 percent of possession.
It took several tries, but Jubileusz managed to break through on the left after 47 minutes, getting the ball to
Dition Qerreti who easily reduced the lead to make the score 2 - 5. As the 60 minute mark approached, the Grilled coach decided it was time for a substitution.
Paulino Trindade reluctantly made way for
Egemen Dinçer Ferzan on the pitch. Some fine movement on the left led to a Grilled goal after 70 minutes, making it 2 - 6.
Hwang Teck Fu was noted down as the scorer. 75 minutes into the game, Grilled wanted to bring some new energy to their game.
Chan Ze Han gave
Moey Xin Seng a quick hug as he left the field. With
Chan Ze Han no longer on the pitch,
Bilal Mohammad Harun took over free kick duty.
Romuald Kuśnierewicz couldn't do anything to stop the technically gifted
Gandhik Chitre as he dodged past on his way to scoring a wonderful goal for Grilled - 2 - 7! 79 minutes into the game, Grilled worked the left side industriously creating several opportunities to add to their lead, but just couldn't apply the finishing touch. Grilled increased their lead after 86 minutes when
Hwang Teck Fu broke through on the right, upping the score to 2 - 8, much to the home crowd's dismay. The players were tired, but when the referee announced that there would be 5 minutes of added time they, nonetheless, welcomed the extra opportunity to make an impact. The match ends 2 - 8. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Grilled, with 66 percent of the ball.
Bolesław Gatlik performed admirably for Jubileusz.
Romuald Kuśnierewicz on the other hand, had a terrible day. Most important Grilled player was
Aw Keng Chuan. However,
Manuel Vadalà made a disastrous appearance.
