四川南充慧星代表队
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. 苏文渊 started the match with the kick off. If 苏文渊 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 9th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The audience thought a goal was coming when 贺西正 got free with 蒋崇亦 in the 11th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 赵然超 made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from 蔡川适 in the 13th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by 汪星明 in the 17th minute of play forced 辽宁抚顺怪鸟队's goalkeeper 蒋崇亦 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 34 minutes into the game, one of 辽宁抚顺怪鸟队:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. 何强宽 placed the ball on the penalty spot and got himself ready to shoot. Post out! 38 minutes into the game, 汪星明 was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. 四川南充慧星代表队's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave 辽宁抚顺怪鸟队 the free kick. 汪星明 hit a great freekick 38 minutes into the match. 赵然超 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 苏文渊, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 赵然超 stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of 苏文渊's shot from short distance in the 42nd minute. If 苏文渊 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. 汪星明 was the one to do the kick off. After 52 played minutes 辽宁抚顺怪鸟队 got a freekick which was hit by 狄渊骋. 贺西正 struck a weak shot in the 53rd minute. 蒋崇亦 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 四川南充慧星代表队. 蒋崇亦 came out of the goal in the 55th minute to try and stop a shot by 四川南充慧星代表队's 汪星明. But to his dismay, 汪星明 quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-0. 赵然超 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 苏文渊, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 63 minutes into the match, 汪星明 had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of 蒋崇亦. 辽宁抚顺怪鸟队's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that 汪星明 was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 2-0. 汪星明 received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 66th minute. 蒋崇亦 tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 72nd minute 苏文渊 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 赵然超 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 赵然超 was out of position in the 79 minute of play, and 苏文渊 capitalized on the mistake with a soft shot into the goal. 苏文渊 really showed his touch with that goal: 2-1. After a defensive mix-up in 四川南充慧星代表队's zone, 蔡川适 stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. 赵然超 came out of the goal and 蔡川适 tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The supporters of 辽宁抚顺怪鸟队 booed when 四川南充慧星代表队 was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 86 match minutes in a wonderful position. 温兴鹰 didn't get a good kick on the ball. With an all-out effort, 辽宁抚顺怪鸟队's 赵然超 threw himself towards the right post 90 minutes into the match and grabbed hold of the ball from 苏文渊, which otherwise would have been placed in the net. Jeers came from both ends of the stadium when the final whistle went. Neither team had looked impressive and the draw seeemd a fair result.
