安徽亳州白袜联队
Spectators: 32 (Terracing: 25, Seating: 7, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. 郭风乐 started the match with the kick off. 郝桑朗 sent away a hard shot on goal in the 3rd minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. 周洲南 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 郭风乐, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 8 minutes into the game, 王振泉 was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. 湖南岳阳红日队's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave 安徽亳州白袜联队 the free kick.

The referee showed 龚昂磊 the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. The supporters of 安徽亳州白袜联队 booed when 湖南岳阳红日队 was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 75 match minutes in a wonderful position. 龚昂磊 didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 76th minute 郝桑朗 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 周洲南 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 78 minutes into the match, 湖南岳阳红日队's goal looked a bit too open when 郝桑朗 came free, but 周洲南 reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

When 郝桑朗 came up free with the goalie in the 91st minute, the 安徽亳州白袜联队 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 郝桑朗 couldn't finish the play. 湖南岳阳红日队's 周洲南 played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by 郝桑朗 in the 98th minute of play. The 安徽亳州白袜联队 manager could be seen shouting at his players as they walked down the tunnel after the match. He was clearly angry that they had squandered their superior possession, allowing 湖南岳阳红日队 to win.
