The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. Ariando Alba sent away a hard shot on goal in the 2nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When 蒋青剑 fell near the penalty area in the 5th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL's protests and gave 蒋青剑 a yellow card for diving instead. 楚义兴 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Chesus Jusino, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Desiderio Pan's late challenge caught a ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Desiderio Pan helped the player get up and apologised. In the 8th match minute, Ríver Late was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Desiderio Pan to maneuver through the defense. After recieving a nice pass, ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL's 蒋青剑 tried to score from far away in the 9th minute, but the ball went over the crossbar.

Osoitz Baron charged in rather forcefully in the 21st minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Osoitz Baron the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. In the 21st minute, Osoitz Baron hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL's 楚义兴 played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Emenon Borrego in the 23rd minute of play. ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL's 蔡文默 got a good chance for a goal in the 25th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. An unexpectedly hard shot by Osoitz Baron in the 27th minute of play forced ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL's goalkeeper 楚义兴 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. The supporters of Ríver Late booed when ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 30 match minutes in a wonderful position. 蒋青剑 didn't get a good kick on the ball. After a defensive mix-up in ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL's zone, Emenon Borrego stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. 楚义兴 came out of the goal and Emenon Borrego tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. 蔡文默 received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 35th minute. Luix Nicola tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Ariando Alba struck a weak shot in the 43rd minute. 楚义兴 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Ríver Late. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Osoitz Baron stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Luix Nicola made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from 蔡文默 in the 52nd minute of play. 54 minutes into the match, Ríver Late's goal looked a bit too open when 于誉沙 came free, but Luix Nicola reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 57th minute the ball was on its way in behind ≮王者归来≯佛罗伦萨巴蒂GOAL's goalkeeper 楚义兴, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 蔡文默 sent away a hard shot on goal in the 64th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. With his leg 楚义兴 managed to avoid a goal in the 66thth minute, when Ríver Late's Osoitz Baron fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. 楚义兴 stood somewhat misplaced when Osoitz Baron came free in front of goal and shot 3-1 to the left of him in the 66 minute. Luix Nicola stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of 蔡文默's shot from short distance in the 75th minute.
