Spectators: 47 (Terracing: 36, Seating: 11, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Zheng Rong started the match with the kick off. The audience was convinced that Zheng Rong's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Marcos Cotilla was relentless in the 4th minute of the game. Cahya Pandiangan struck a weak shot in the 6th minute. Marcos Cotilla didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Forever Young. An unexpectedly hard shot by Genta Hamzah in the 7th minute of play forced Panama's goalkeeper Marcos Cotilla to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Marcos Cotilla made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Cahya Pandiangan in the 15th minute of play.

Elfonda Astrajingga scored 0-2 in the 40th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Marcos Cotilla, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. 44 minutes into the match, Panama's goal looked a bit too open when Boy Bayauw came free, but Marcos Cotilla reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-2 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Tomas Berganza stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. After 56 minutes of play, Forever Young's Zheng Rong made it 0-3 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.

The supporters of Forever Young booed when Panama was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 70 match minutes in a wonderful position.
