Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when 贺冰康 took the kick off in the first half of the match. 贺冰康's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but 朱云桑 read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 14th minute of play. 陕西咸阳鬼火联队's defense didn't have a chance, in the 16th minute, when 谢景风 scored to the left of an out of position 乔银珂, making the score, 1-0. After some fancy dribbling in the 20th minute, 沈旭皓 managed to get in a good position for a shot. 陕西咸阳鬼火联队's supporters rose to their feet, but 沈旭皓 was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. 朱云桑 breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 贺冰康 struck a weak shot in the 27th minute. 朱云桑 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 陕西咸阳鬼火联队. 29 minutes into the match, 陕西咸阳鬼火联队's goalkeeper 乔银珂 had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by 任文西. In the 37th minute, 江苏苏州魔人俱乐部队's 雷飞耀 seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed 雷飞耀 the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of 江苏苏州魔人俱乐部队 protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and 雷飞耀 had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. 朱云桑 went to the wrong direction when 吕远珂 was taking care of the penalty kick which however missed the goal. Af the end of the first half the score was 2-0. The first half had gone as expected for the home team.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. 任文西 was the one to do the kick off. A collision led to 江苏苏州魔人俱乐部队 getting a freekick after 55 minutes play. 叶景海 hit a great ball. 沈旭皓 fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 59th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without 朱云桑 having to interfere. In the 62nd minute, 沈旭皓 had to be helped off the field due to a pulled leg muscle. 62 minutes into the game, 谢景风 was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. 江苏苏州魔人俱乐部队's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave 陕西咸阳鬼火联队 the free kick. The supporters of 陕西咸阳鬼火联队 booed when 江苏苏州魔人俱乐部队 was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 63 match minutes in a wonderful position. 谢景风 didn't get a good kick on the ball. 秦树默 didn't quite understand what happened when in the 65 minute of the game managed to get a great opportunity for a goal and then missed the goal by a feet. 秦树默's shot from long distance in the 70th minute was not bad at all, but 江苏苏州魔人俱乐部队's 朱云桑 knew what was happening and pushed the ball into his arms just before it hit the right post. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by 胡辰轩 during the 71st minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After a rather tough play, 江苏苏州魔人俱乐部队's 胡辰轩 got a free kick in the 71st minute. In the 72nd minute the ball was on its way in behind 江苏苏州魔人俱乐部队's goalkeeper 朱云桑, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 陕西咸阳鬼火联队's 乔银珂 played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by 任文西 in the 76th minute of play. After having played for 80 minutes, 贺冰康 managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. 陕西咸阳鬼火联队's supporters crossed their fingers, but 贺冰康 was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 朱云桑 was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but 贺冰康 showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 2-1 in the 88 minute of play.
