Spectators: 7624 (Terracing: 5719, Seating: 1753, VIP seats: 152) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play.

Esbjörn Apelquist made an important save on a dangerous shot by Adriano Nunes in the 17th minute.

White Hart Lane's Esbjörn Apelquist played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by 柳城响 in the 87th minute of play. The supporters of 【FLY】悠然泪下 booed when White Hart Lane was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 96 match minutes in a wonderful position. Supreme Back didn't get a good kick on the ball.

White Hart Lane's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
