Spectators: 44 (Terracing: 34, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Tomas Berganza took the kick off in the first half of the match. The supporters of Panama booed when Cylon was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 3 match minutes in a wonderful position. 庄志政 didn't get a good kick on the ball. 林城谦 made a fantastic save in the 5th minute, when Abraham Alguacil sent off a good shot on target. When 沈然弘 fell near the penalty area in the 6th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick.
