Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. 楚兴乐 started the match with the kick off. In the 4th minute 孟战笑 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but 姜松常 saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If 钱庭震 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 6th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 钱庭震s short, quick shot in the 7thth minute got 谢潮鹏 to make great effort and bar the ball away from getting in. 钱庭震 struck a weak shot in the 19th minute. 谢潮鹏 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal.

The audience thought a goal was coming when 孟战笑 got free with 姜松常 in the 69th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 孟战笑 might have been able to make a better finish in the 70th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over 姜松常. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. 孟战笑 ran back to his position shaking his head. After 71 played minutes 山东临沂水蛇俱乐部队 got a freekick which was hit by 蔡昂康. 钱庭震 blasted a shot towards the goal in the 79th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without 谢潮鹏 having to make a save.
