Ashley Titmus started the match with the kick off. Walter Allanson made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from 石默斌 in the 3rd minute of play. Ashley Titmus had several of the DaLian MyLord FC's defenders around him in the penalty area when he, after 4 minutes of play, received a pass and succeeded in some way to shoot a shot which went straight ahead into goal. This resulted in a 1-0 score and a disappointed 马耀邦 as he didn't even see the shot coming.
