Spectators: 152 (Terracing: 114, Seating: 35, VIP seats: 3) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Iskandar Phua made the kick off which started today's match. 7 minutes into the match, Iskandar Phua notched a goal, 0-1, to the right of 中职联-大连实德's 叶辰邦. 叶辰邦 was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. 14 minutes into the game, Iskandar Phua cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 0-2. 叶辰邦 was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Nagrand's defense didn't have a chance, in the 18th minute, when 莫适宽 scored to the left of an out of position Alam Dyce, making the score, 1-2. Alam Dyce took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 莫适宽, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 29th minute, 汪斐迪 hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Didi Chandran recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 38th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Alam Dyce took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 莫适宽, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The 中职联-大连实德 players were disheartened as they walked off the pitch after the first half. Nagrand were winning 1-2.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and 莫适宽 made a kick off. 黄铮翀 kicked well hit freekick during the 50th minute of the match. 汪斐迪 charged in rather forcefully in the 51st minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed 汪斐迪 the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. 56 minutes into the match, Nagrand's goal looked a bit too open when 莫适宽 came free, but Alam Dyce reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 61st minute 莫适宽 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alam Dyce saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Alam Dyce came out of the goal in the 64th minute to try and stop a shot by 中职联-大连实德's 莫适宽. But to his dismay, 莫适宽 quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-2. Alam Dyce took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from 汪斐迪, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Afiz Lim kicked well hit freekick during the 72nd minute of the match. In the 73rd minute 莫适宽 shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Alam Dyce saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Alam Dyce showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from 白适军 in the 75th minute of the match. A hard shot 80 in the game by Didi Chandran from a close distance when the talented 叶辰邦 managed to make a qualified save. 中职联-大连实德's players were relieved. Iskandar Phua was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 81st minute. Nagrand's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. Afiz Hee struck a weak shot in the 83rd minute. 叶辰邦 didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Nagrand. 陆文升's late challenge caught a Nagrand's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. 陆文升 helped the player get up and apologised. Nagrand's Alam Dyce played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by 莫适宽 in the 90th minute of play. With a little luck, 中职联-大连实德's 叶辰邦 got control of the ball when Didi Chandran tried to sneak it across the goal line. The supporters of Nagrand booed when 中职联-大连实德 was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 94 match minutes in a wonderful position. 汪斐迪 didn't get a good kick on the ball. The second half was just like the first, even and exciting. The match ended in a draw.
