Benito Sanz tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Clarence Telebanco received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 35th minute.

Clarence Telebanco struck a weak shot in the 66th minute. Benito Sanz didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 四川攀枝花掠夺者联队. When 钱军青 came up free with the goalie in the 68th minute, the 四川攀枝花掠夺者联队 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 钱军青 couldn't finish the play. After having played for 71 minutes, 王珂景 managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. 四川攀枝花掠夺者联队's supporters crossed their fingers, but 王珂景 was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal.

Supporters and players were both delighted with the win, as 四川攀枝花掠夺者联队 had held the ball for most of the match.
