Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) 黄适战 might have been able to make a better finish in the 2nd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over 潘翀浩. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. 黄适战 ran back to his position shaking his head. 4 minutes into the match, 香港中西区猛龙队's 孙朗迪 sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that 郑乐益 narrowly saved just below the crossbar.

In the 49th minute 香港中西区猛龙队 were awarded a corner. 郑岩建 went to the cornerflag to take it. The corner ended in 郑岩建 almost managing to get the ball behind the net, but 香港油尖旺区神舟队's 郑乐益 did a great save. Disappointed in the 0-2 score, the home team went to the dressing room to adjust tactics for the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell 郑川鹏 to make the kick off. 姜天晨 sent away a hard shot on goal in the 55th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out.

An unexpected shot in the 75th minute by 黄适战 got the crowd on their feet, but to their dismay it went out on the left side. When 史宇平 fell near the penalty area in the 78th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored 香港油尖旺区神舟队's protests and gave 史宇平 a yellow card for diving instead. In the 79th minute, 史宇平 hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. In the 81st minute, 姜天晨 got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. The audience was convinced that 孙朗迪's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but 郑乐益 was relentless in the 83rd minute of the game. 郑川鹏 fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 85th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without 潘翀浩 having to interfere. 92 minutes into the match, 姜天晨 notched a goal, 1-3, to the right of 香港油尖旺区神舟队's 郑乐益. 郑乐益 was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. After 98 played minutes 香港中西区猛龙队 got a freekick which was hit by 胡乐振. 香港油尖旺区神舟队 played a much better game than 香港中西区猛龙队 and deserved their victory. The 香港中西区猛龙队 players were clearly disappointed as they left the ground.
