The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. 3 minutes in the game, the ball went up into the seats when 湖南株洲野马联队's 郑扬泉 fired away a shot that was just a little bit too high.

When 齐鹏翀 came up free with the goalie in the 78th minute, the 香港葵青区火影联队 fans jumped to their feet.
