After 2 minutes, M. García-Velasco came in from the right, feinted, then sped past the off-balance defender to make the score 1 - 0, giving Al Hilal FC the lead. A magnificent combination in the middle resulted in Al Hilal FC's K. Guth increasing the lead to 2 - 0. After 21 minutes, Al Hilal FC's E. Bruineman found the back of the goal with a beautiful free kick. 3 - 0. N. van Campen increased the lead for Al Hilal FC to 4 - 0, getting a head onto a hooked ball from the right. The ball looked to have taken a deflection on the way in, but he's claiming it! By now, the players in Al Hilal FC felt that victory was guaranteed and began to play it safe, focusing on defence and not risking too much going forward. After 36 minutes, the away team failed to deal with a good exchange of passes on the right, and R. Banger gave the Al Hilal FC supporters even more to cheer about when he increased the lead to 5 - 0. The teams went for the halftime break at 5 - 0. Al Hilal FC had most of the ball, with 70 percent of possession.

N. van Campen left the field with a smile on his face as he was substituted 60 minutes into the game, as his team was in the lead. A. Rashid was the replacement. The coach of Al Hilal FC was happy with the game so far, but still wanted to change the line up. After 70 minutes, A. El-Jibril came on for I. Ibn-Habib. Content with how the game was proceeding, the Al Hilal FC coach let S. Vandenwaeyenberg replace M. García-Velasco after 70 minutes. After 73 minutes, a couple of quick and successful challenges followed by a shot from just outside the penalty area by K. Guth might have resulted in another goal for Al Hilal FC. However, J. Cerqueira made a spectacular save. S. Vandenwaeyenberg had a fantastic opportunity to put Al Hilal FC up another goal 74 minutes into the match, but he fired just over the crossbar. 77 minutes in, Tigers's 彭. 慶坤 (Qingkun) received a yellow card for going into a challenge studs first. Al Hilal FC put themselves up 6 - 0 when E. Bruineman broke through on the right, leaving the entire defence trailing in his wake. J. Abdul could have increased the lead after 83 minutes, but his shot hit the post after a nice combination in the middle of the park. Al Hilal FC enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 69 percent of possession.

The most dominating Al Hilal FC player was without a doubt E. Abu-Sulaiman. A. Rashid was a disappointment, however. S. Tepedelen performed admirably for Tigers. However, V. Tadić made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 6 - 0.
