A scorching day at LABOUMLYZ Arena, where 12000 spectators were in place for today's match. Juan Villavedón was the appointed referee with assistance provided by Francisco Castresana and Riccardo Capeccia. It was a very hot day and some players suffered from this, especially those relying on tough physical play or a lot of fast runs. For the technical ones, on the other hand, this was ideal conditions. LABOUMLYZ's starters: Chon - Avasthi, Tang, Husain Khairul Akmal - Padukone, Shenoy, Park, Heng Min - Azza, Gurjala, Mustafa.

The following players took the field for Grilled: Salmiņš - Panigrahi, Lunde - Parvathaneni, Kamel, Mohammad Harun, Ze Han, Dong Chu - Mazhud, Mudaliar, Xin Lee.

The teams had chosen different formations for the match. Home team LABOUMLYZ went for 3-4-3 while Grilled Birds has decided to play a 2-5-3 lineup. Grilled seemed to prefer attacking in the middle, taking advantage of their divine (+5) (25) level with that tactic. After 3 minutes, Grilled's Vikram Mudaliar swiftly ran past Affandy Husain Khairul Akmal and nutmegged the keeper! 0 - 1. After 6 minutes a combination in the middle resulted in a through ball for Kalki Parvathaneni who increased Grilled's lead to 0 - 2. In a rapid move 20 minutes into the match, Kalki Parvathaneni of Grilled lost his man and passed the ball to the unmarked Heng Dong Chu who easily hit it home to make it 0 - 3. Luckily the ref didn't see him taunting the opposing fans in celebration - naughty boy! Central attacks were the recipe of the day for Grilled, as they moved the ball from the wings to the middle with startling regularity. After 22 minutes, an incisive pass through the middle gave Kalki Parvathaneni a chance to increase the lead for Grilled, and he did not disappoint. The score was then 0 - 4. Salah Kamel came close to extending the visitors' lead when he found himself completely unmarked in front of the goal after a pass through the middle. He tried to lift the ball over Bill Chon but overcooked it and hit the bar instead. A slight injury to his left calf muscle meant Mukhtar Azza had to leave the match early. It happened after 38 minutes. This gave Pan Yun Shi a chance to take to the field instead. Grilled players heard their coach's words ringing in their ears and steered their wing attacks to the middle instead. The visitors' Vikram Mudaliar took advantage of a misunderstanding between the home side's goalie and centre backs 39 minutes into the match. 0 - 5 for Grilled. It was obvious that team Grilled had instructions to attack in the middle instead of on the wings. Chan Ze Han received a delicate pass through the home side's central defence after 40 minutes, and chipped it past the flailing keeper to score making it 0 - 6. The Grilled fans went wild, whilst the home fans started to think about leaving early. The teams went for the halftime break at 0 - 6. Grilled had most of the ball, with 76 percent of possession.

46 minutes into the game, Grilled wanted to bring some new energy to their game. Kalki Parvathaneni gave Teo Chuan Yong a quick hug as he left the field. Grilled increased their lead after 51 minutes when Heng Dong Chu broke through on the right, upping the score to 0 - 7, much to the home crowd's dismay. Vikram Mudaliar's lightning pace was too much for Affandy Husain Khairul Akmal who could only look on as the Grilled player blasted one home. 0 - 8. By then Vikram Mudaliar had scored three goals - a hat trick! After 61 minutes, Grilled's Chu Xin Lee burst through the central defence and let loose a cannonball of a shot, scoring for 0 - 9. The home crowd was not impressed when Heng Dong Chu came in from the right, shooting hard to score after 62 minutes. Grilled were now up 0 - 10. That made three goals for Heng Dong Chu and he was marked down for the hat trick. LABOUMLYZ's Udhayanidhi Shenoy got himself booked for a foul. Vikram Mudaliar could have put his team up another goal 70 minutes into the game, after a rush down the left, but his closing shot hit the post. 85 minutes into the match, the referee signalled for a Grilled substitution. Atang Mangoye came on for Chu Xin Lee. After 85 minutes, the Grilled coach wanted to see a new face on the pitch, waving Bilal Mohammad Harun off the field. Moey Xin Seng took his place. The referee decided to let play continue for an additional 5 minutes beyond the regular 90 minutes. Grilled's Salah Kamel made it through the home team's defence on the right hand side 90 minutes into the match. After rounding the keeper, he only had to place the ball in the unguarded goal when a defender slid in and cleared the ball off the line. The match ends 0 - 10. Grilled enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 77 percent of possession.

Most important LABOUMLYZ player was Manish Padukone. Pan Yun Shi turned in a dismal performance, however. Grilled's top performer was clearly Abd Hadi Taib Mazhud. However, Atang Mangoye made a disastrous appearance.
