Though Bukit Panjang’s teamwork was good, Yuying managed to break their defence on several occasions. Bukit Panjang’s first team was also on the sidelines cheering their schoolmates on, but strong attacks from Yuying’s #18 and #13 allowed Yuying to take the lead.

Bukit Panjang created insufficient opportunities for attack and many balls were given free to their opponents. This proved costly and resulted in their loss.
