If Deyi thought the Bullets would relax after having almost assured 3 points, they were so wrong. Things got very bad for the visitors as the insatiable Bullets went on a rampage, hammering 5 more goals in the first 15 minutes of the 2nd half (Siti Nor Aysah, 32', Faradila 35', 43', OngYan Ling 40' and the Munirah 45'). The highlight of the day was Munirah's long punt from the midway line that caught the Deyi goalkeeper napping.

The first fifteen minutes of the game was all quiet, with the SJI players steadily denying the Bowen attackers of all their chances. In the 16th minute, Sasi Kala Tamang broke the silence with the first goal. Two minutes later, Emilia Natasha smashed the second into the back of the net after a cross from teammate Ong Yan Ling. Sasi then dribbled through the entire SJI defence to make the score 3-0 just before half time.

After their resounding victories over Whitley Sec (8-1) and SJI (8-0), the Bowen Bullets were slightly more cautious against their experienced opponents who were made up of seemingly stronger and taller girls. The Yet, it took only 9 minutes for Bullets Sasi to score Bowen's first goal.

As Greenview began to settle down, they produced a few chances of which one brought out a good save from Bowen keeper Crystal Ong. In the 23rd min, the Bullets conceded a penalty which Greenview buried in the net but match referee strangely disallowed the goal for an encroachment into the penalty area by a Bowen player.
