Spectators: 7451 (Terracing: 5590, Seating: 1713, VIP seats: 148) With a little luck, 五星铁观音队's 唐卫珂 got control of the ball when German Veto tried to sneak it across the goal line. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by 徐天海 during the 7th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. A collision led to 五星铁观音队 getting a freekick after 7 minutes play. 徐天海 hit a great ball. 唐卫珂 made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Astor Berart in the 9th minute of play. After 10 minutes 五星铁观音队's defender was forced to head the ball over the line for a corner. It was Gaston Stanislao who took care of the corner kick. The corner ended in Victorino Balesio almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but 五星铁观音队's 唐卫珂 did a great save. 14 minutes into the game, Roberto Celio was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Q. T. I.'s manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave 五星铁观音队 the free kick. Roberto Celio hit a great freekick 14 minutes into the match. A sloppy throw-in by Roberto Celio in the 15th minute of the game went astray and was snapped up by 五星铁观音队's 庞榕然. When 邵霆洲 came up free with the goalie in the 16th minute, the 五星铁观音队 fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that 邵霆洲 couldn't finish the play. German Veto fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 20th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without 唐卫珂 having to interfere. When 徐天海 was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 31 minutes had been played. The supporters of Q. T. I. booed when 五星铁观音队 was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 31 match minutes in a wonderful position. 徐天海 didn't get a good kick on the ball. After 34 played minutes Q. T. I. got a freekick which was hit by Roberto Celio. If 邵霆洲 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 35th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. After a rather tough play, 五星铁观音队's 倪峰冰 got a free kick in the 36th minute. Gaston Stanislao was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 37th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. When German Veto came up free with the goalie in the 39th minute, the Q. T. I. fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that German Veto couldn't finish the play. Astor Berart struck a weak shot in the 40th minute. 唐卫珂 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Q. T. I.. When 曹傲朋 fell near the penalty area in the 42nd minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored 五星铁观音队's protests and gave 曹傲朋 a yellow card for diving instead. After a defensive mix-up in 五星铁观音队's zone, Gaston Stanislao stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. 唐卫珂 came out of the goal and Gaston Stanislao tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-1 lead.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Astor Berart made a kick off. In the 52nd minute German Veto shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 唐卫珂 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Q. T. I.'s Gaston Stanislao in the 63rd minute got a chance for a shot 63rd didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye 五星铁观音队's goalie prevented a goal. Evaristo Xacintu showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from 邵霆洲 in the 71st minute of the match. With a little luck, Q. T. I.'s Evaristo Xacintu got control of the ball when 邵霆洲 tried to sneak it across the goal line. Gaston Stanislao struck a weak shot in the 84th minute. 唐卫珂 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Q. T. I.. An unexpectedly hard shot by Astor Berart in the 86th minute of play forced 五星铁观音队's goalkeeper 唐卫珂 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Evaristo Xacintu tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 96th minute, 邵霆洲 made a precise shot to the right of Evaristo Xacintu. Q. T. I.'s defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 1-2. The referee blew the final whistle, and the away crowd roared, having watched 五星铁观音队 eke out a victory against a very well matched opponent.
