河南南阳神舟队
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when 顾然寒 kicked off to start the match. In the 4th minute, 俞洋海 hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After having played for 4 minutes, 顾然寒 managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. 山东日照双子星队's supporters crossed their fingers, but 顾然寒 was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. If 顾然寒 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 11th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. In the 17th minute 梅然迅 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 温阳文 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. After 27 minutes, 俞洋海 mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the 河南南阳神舟队 and the 山东日照双子星队 players grew even worse after the yellow card. 俞洋海 kicked well hit freekick during the 28th minute of the match. After having played for 38 minutes, 石坚延 managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. 河南南阳神舟队's supporters crossed their fingers, but 石坚延 was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 唐森俊's late challenge caught a 河南南阳神舟队's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. 唐森俊 helped the player get up and apologised. 唐森俊 kicked well hit freekick during the 39th minute of the match. In the 44th minute 巩卫希 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 狄政海 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. The home fans were very happy to see their team leading 1-0 at half-time.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when 武骋亦 stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. 狄政海 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 曹战旭, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 唐森俊 hit a great freekick 61 minutes into the match. After a defensive mix-up in 山东日照双子星队's zone, 巩卫希 stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. 狄政海 came out of the goal and 巩卫希 tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. If 顾然寒 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 68th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. 山东日照双子星队's 孔森源 suffered a sore thigh after 68 minutes and couldn't finish the game. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by 邵凌战 during the 68th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After a rather tough play, 河南南阳神舟队's 邵凌战 got a free kick in the 69th minute. 唐森俊 hit a great freekick 73 minutes into the match. In the 81st minute, 顾然寒 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. 康振银 sent away a hard shot on goal in the 85th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When 顾然寒 came up free with the goalie in the 90th minute, the 山东日照双子星队 fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that 顾然寒 couldn't finish the play. 武骋亦 recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 94th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 96th minute 曹战旭 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 狄政海 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 山东日照双子星队's players left the field with heads hung low after losing a match that had been finely balanced throughout.
