Falcão Baptista struck a weak shot in the 27th minute. 魏亮宇 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for 『挑战者』BRAND NEW 风雨无阻.

After some fancy dribbling in the 56th minute, 孙扬渊 managed to get in a good position for a shot. 『挑战者』BRAND NEW 风雨无阻's supporters rose to their feet, but 孙扬渊 was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. 魏亮宇 breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 58 minutes into the match, China's goalkeeper 魏亮宇 had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by 孙扬渊. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling 朱傲义 in the 67th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Van 蒋斌 prevented the ball from getting in the gole.

China's supporters crossed their fingers, but 柯正轩 was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Van 蒋斌 made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from 朱傲义 in the 75th minute of play. In the 81st minute 朱傲义 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Van 蒋斌 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.
