Spectators: 7460 (Terracing: 5596, Seating: 1715, VIP seats: 149) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when 沈潮岩 took the kick off in the first half of the match. 河南焦作巨鳄俱乐部队's 曲树益 played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by 叶庭天 in the 9th minute of play. With his leg 肖弘旭 managed to avoid a goal in the 10thth minute, when 河南焦作巨鳄俱乐部队's 沈潮岩 fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. 范宇升's late challenge caught a 宁夏银川公羊俱乐部队's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. 范宇升 helped the player get up and apologised. After a rather tough play, 河南焦作巨鳄俱乐部队's 范宇升 got a free kick in the 19th minute. 苏彬诚 received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 22nd minute. 曲树益 tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If 沈希鸿 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 24th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 曲树益 showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from 苏彬诚, who was totally free with the ball in the 26th minute. 苏彬诚 fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 38th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without 曲树益 having to interfere. 胡思适 might have been able to make a better finish in the 40th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over 曲树益. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. 胡思适 ran back to his position shaking his head. 苏彬诚 struck a weak shot in the 42nd minute. 曲树益 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 宁夏银川公羊俱乐部队. When 胡思适 came up free with the goalie in the 44th minute, the 宁夏银川公羊俱乐部队 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 胡思适 couldn't finish the play. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

The wind increased when 沈希鸿 made the kick off in the second half. If 苏彬诚 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 51st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 曲树益 showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from 沈希鸿, who was totally free with the ball in the 55th minute. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by 赵阳卫 during the 58th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. 曲树益 made an important save on a dangerous shot by 苏彬诚 in the 62nd minute. The audience thought a goal was coming when 胡思适 got free with 曲树益 in the 63rd minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. If 沈希鸿 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 65th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 67th minute 沈希鸿 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 曲树益 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After some careless play in the 河南焦作巨鳄俱乐部队 defense, 胡思适 kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of 曲树益. The 河南焦作巨鳄俱乐部队 fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that 曲树益 should have stopped the shot. 宁夏银川公羊俱乐部队's 武浩国 was substituted for 曾林夕. 宁夏银川公羊俱乐部队's 肖弘旭 played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by 沈潮岩 in the 74th minute of play. 宁夏银川公羊俱乐部队's 苏彬诚 got a good chance for a goal in the 77th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. 沈希鸿 received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 83rd minute. 曲树益 tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 叶庭天 might have been able to make a better finish in the 85th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over 曲树益. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. 叶庭天 ran back to his position shaking his head. 沈希鸿 could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 88th minute of the match, but 曲树益 made a huge save. 赵阳卫 was shown his second yellow card after 89 minutes, following a rather ugly tackle on opponent. That was the end of his participation in the match. If 苏彬诚 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 94th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.
