成都梦剧场老特拉福德
Spectators: 7532 (Terracing: 5650, Seating: 1732, VIP seats: 150) Arturo Passerini made the kick off and thus started the match. After a defensive mix-up in Fiume Veneto's zone, 乔文文 stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Emilio Esposito came out of the goal and 乔文文 tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After 11th play minutes Cesare Trotta shot 0-1, a short shot which went by 吕亮桑 and just under the crossbar into goal. 16 minutes into the game, 苏康超 cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-1. Emilio Esposito was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. Arturo Passerini sent away a hard shot on goal in the 21st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 吕亮桑 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Arturo Passerini, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If 史扬超 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 31st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 36th minute, Adriano De Simone hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. A hard shot by 彭政阳 from long distance, 37 minutes into the match, got Emilio Esposito's attention. Through a fast twist with his body, he could stop the ball from going in on his right side. An unexpectedly hard shot by Cesare Trotta in the 42nd minute of play forced 『挑战者』兄弟-浪子而已's goalkeeper 吕亮桑 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Fiume Veneto were awarded a corner in the 44th minute after 『挑战者』兄弟-浪子而已's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line. Alexsandro Santis took the corner. A well-hit corner resulted in Fedele Pesce heading the ball towards the goal, but to his dismay he misdirected it and missed the goal completely. After the first half the score was level. The break gave the players a chance to catch their breath, whilst the managers went over the tactics with them again.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when 乔文文 stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. 吕亮桑 showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Cesare Trotta in the 53rd minute of the match. With a couple of smart ball manuevers 彭政阳 in the 56th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Emilio Esposito saved Fiume Veneto from getting behind. 『挑战者』兄弟-浪子而已's 彭政阳 was first on the ball when the corner was shot and he dangerously headed the ball towards goal, but Emilio Esposito in the goal jumped up to prevent it from getting in. 史翔海's late challenge caught a Fiume Veneto's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. 史翔海 helped the player get up and apologised. In the 62nd minute of the match Alexsandro Santis shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but 吕亮桑 showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. An unexpectedly hard shot by 乔文文 in the 65th minute of play forced Fiume Veneto's goalkeeper Emilio Esposito to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 史翔海 hit a great freekick 66 minutes into the match. 史扬超 charged in rather forcefully in the 70th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed 史扬超 the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Alexsandro Santis took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 71st minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for 吕亮桑. 『挑战者』兄弟-浪子而已's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. After some fancy dribbling in the 72nd minute, Arturo Passerini managed to get in a good position for a shot. Fiume Veneto's supporters rose to their feet, but Arturo Passerini was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. 吕亮桑 breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 75th minute, Arturo Passerini left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Fiume Veneto fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 1-2. Cesare Trotta fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 82nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without 吕亮桑 having to interfere. After 88 minutes, Cesare Marinelli mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Fiume Veneto and the 『挑战者』兄弟-浪子而已 players grew even worse after the yellow card. Cesare Marinelli hit a great freekick 88 minutes into the match. In the 91st minute, Adriano De Simone hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 彭政阳 took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 93rd minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Emilio Esposito. Fiume Veneto's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. The 『挑战者』兄弟-浪子而已 manager could be seen shouting at his players as they walked down the tunnel after the match. He was clearly angry that they had squandered their superior possession, allowing Fiume Veneto to win.
