Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Inan De kicked off to start the match. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Inan De in the 6th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Jivaratna Beasley saved Holton-le-Clay from getting behind. After 12 minutes, Avyaya Shindi mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the East Dulwich and the Holton-le-Clay players grew even worse after the yellow card. After 12 played minutes East Dulwich got a freekick which was hit by Avyaya Shindi. Haricarana Lanong took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Didhitimat Gandhi, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Inan De had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 19th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 21st minute, Hridayangam Patiala made a precise shot to the right of Haricarana Lanong. East Dulwich's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 1-1. After some fancy dribbling in the 24th minute, Hridayangam Patiala managed to get in a good position for a shot. Holton-le-Clay's supporters rose to their feet, but Hridayangam Patiala was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Haricarana Lanong breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Didhitimat Gandhi during the 25th minute.

Holton-le-Clay's Jivaratna Beasley tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 38th minute Didhitimat Gandhi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Haricarana Lanong saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Hridayangam Patiala blasted a shot towards the goal in the 40th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Haricarana Lanong having to make a save.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Hridayangam Patiala in the 47th minute of play forced East Dulwich's goalkeeper Haricarana Lanong to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Haricarana Lanong showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Didhitimat Gandhi, who was totally free with the ball in the 54th minute. Ananthakrishnan Bains charged in rather forcefully in the 55th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Ananthakrishnan Bains the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play.
