Arena: Mong Kok Stadium
Crowd: 12200 
12200 spectators had found their way to Mong Kok Stadium, despite the heavy rain. Rickys had chosen a strategic 4-3-3 formation. Starters: Bingyu - Garrafa, Noy, Shamai, Wee Keng - Tze Ngan, Yue Shun, Ling Lai - Chunjing, Ming Teck, Jang Lu.
Mathematics tactics involved an interesting 3-5-2 combination. Lineup: Danjian - Pagkalos, Kościółek, Yue Shun - Chong Wai,
Xiaoping, Guan Hee, Va'aknin, Juh shiun - Kwong, Nota.
Seemingly due to lack of experience, Wilhelm Kościółek needlessly tripped an opponent just outside the penalty area, but the free
kick that followed didn't succeed. The game was characterized by rough play and many physical challenges on the wet field, but
Hei Chong Wai showed great heart and had a good game. In the 31st minute, the visitors nearly went up a goal, but Yu Kwong's free
kick hit the crossbar. Mathematics appeared unsure on how to play and their organization was only solid. Down the middle came Li
Guan Hee, making a fantastic play that nearly had Mathematics take the lead in the 34th minute, but Liu Bingyu preserved the tie.
An opportunity to take the lead in the 35th minute was passed by as Mathematics's Yu Kwong missed a penalty, firing wide of the
mark. Rickys appeared unsure on how to play and their organization was only solid. After 39 minutes, Mathematics put themselves
up by 0 - 1, as Yu Kwong finished off a strike from the left with a real cannon placed at the far post. Rickys seemed a little
tentative in their play as their organization fell to weak. 0 - 1 was the halftime score. Mathematics held the ball, with a clear
72 percent of possession.
During the break, Rickys's coach went through the team's tactics yet again, getting them up to solid organization. During the

delight as Chuah Yue Shun finished off a spectacular series of plays up the middle to even the numbers for Rickys in the 59th
minute. 1 - 1. There was a bit of a mixup on the field as Mathematics found themselves out of position and their organization
level dropped to passable. Almost all the way down to the corner flag, Mathematics's Zhang Juh shiun somehow managed to get a
perfect pass into the middle, impossible to miss for Yu Kwong, who struck for 1 - 2. In the 67th minute, Rickys's Qian Tze Ngan
received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Tang Ling Lai was just a finger's breadth away from an equaliser
for Rickys with a strike from the left, but Su Danjian managed to ward the closing shot off to a corner. There was a bit of a
mixup on the field as Mathematics found themselves out of position and their organization level dropped to passable. The
forty-five minutes were dominated by Mathematics, with an impressive 73 percent possession of the ball.
Rickys's top performer was clearly Tang Ming Teck. Zhou Chunjing turned in a dismal performance, however. Mathematics's best
player was Zhang Juh shiun. Yu Kwong on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 1 - 2.
