The referee blew the whistle for a penalty in the 68th minute of the game. One of 江西吉安圣徒队:s players had nearly got his shirt torn off by an opponent while getting free in front of 上海申花:s goal. The referee gave 上海申花 a penalty, 70 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by 郝冰皓, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of 江西吉安圣徒队's 叶西源. 1-0.
