天津宁河县异军队
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. 柯西卫 started the match with the kick off. 10 minutes into the match, 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队's 曹谦榕 sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that 袁松林 narrowly saved just below the crossbar. 柯西卫 might have been able to make a better finish in the 14th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over 柯凌桑. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. 柯西卫 ran back to his position shaking his head. 张棋昂 kicked well hit freekick during the 15th minute of the match. 24 minutes into the game, 温德常 was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. 天津宁河县异军队's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队 the free kick. After some fancy dribbling in the 29th minute, 崔杰银 managed to get in a good position for a shot. 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队's supporters rose to their feet, but 崔杰银 was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. 袁松林 breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 柳谦树 received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 38th minute. 柯凌桑 tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 柯西卫 sent away a hard shot on goal in the 40th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. When 柳谦树 came up free with the goalie in the 43rd minute, the 天津宁河县异军队 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 柳谦树 couldn't finish the play. The away team players looked dejected as the walked off the pitch at half time. They had fought hard, but were still losing 1-0.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for 崔杰银 to strike the kick off in the second half. 崔杰银 received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 54th minute. 袁松林 tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. 崔杰银's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but 袁松林 read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 56th minute of play. The supporters of 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队 booed when 天津宁河县异军队 was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 57 match minutes in a wonderful position. 唐益荣 didn't get a good kick on the ball. 崔杰银 fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 58th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without 袁松林 having to interfere. In the 59th match minute, 天津宁河县异军队 was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by 巩桦文 to maneuver through the defense. The audience was convinced that 柳谦树's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but 柯凌桑 was relentless in the 62nd minute of the game. After a rather tough play, 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队's 张棋昂 got a free kick in the 64th minute. 柳谦树 fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 65th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without 柯凌桑 having to interfere. When 天津宁河县异军队's 柯西卫 in the 74th minute got a chance for a shot 74th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队's goalie prevented a goal. 孙迅枫's late challenge caught a 天津宁河县异军队's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. 孙迅枫 helped the player get up and apologised. In the 77th match minute, 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队 was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by 孙迅枫 to maneuver through the defense. In the 83rdth minute of the game 柯西卫 who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队's 柯凌桑 was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. 柯凌桑 showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from 柳谦树 in the 87th minute of the match. In the 89th minute 柳谦树 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 柯凌桑 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If 柯西卫 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 92nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 94 minutes into the match, 柳谦树 had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of 柯凌桑. 安徽淮北骇客俱乐部队's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that 柳谦树 was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-0. It was no surprise that this one had ended in a win for the home team. 天津宁河县异军队 had played much better football throughout.
