Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Long Erickson got the match started through his kick off. Simon Pickett kicked well hit freekick during the 3rd minute of the match. After 4 played minutes, Bellin FC's Edwardo Clinton shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Lucius Montano came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Bellin FC reached it. In the 7th match minute, Bellin FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Branden Ayala to maneuver through the defense. 8 minutes into the game, Thornhill AFC's Long Erickson nearly tore a hole in the net with a booming shot.

In the 21st match minute, Thornhill AFC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Julien Clay to maneuver through the defense. If Chester Shultz had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 23rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

The Bellin FC fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-2. Elroy Huynh struck a weak shot in the 43rd minute. Lucius Montano didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Bellin FC. After a defensive mix-up in Thornhill AFC's zone, Chester Shultz stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Lucius Montano came out of the goal and Chester Shultz tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Bellin FC's Elroy Huynh got a good chance for a goal in the 47th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. The score stood at 2-2 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Chester Shultz to make the kick off.

Elroy Huynh recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 59th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Leroy Capps received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 66th minute. Lucius Montano tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. When the match had gone on for 76 minutes, Long Erickson put it in 3-3 from a short distance just to the right of Weldon Donnelly.

After 95 minutes of play, Bellin FC's Elroy Huynh made it 4-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Lucius Montano was left in no man's land by his defense there! There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Bellin FC fully deserved thier win.
