The light drizzle did not dampen the obvious enthusiasm showed by fellow Xenons who travelled to Greenwood field for the match between Xenon and Ghaffar FC, captained by ex-Xenon, Ghaffar. The line-up for Xenon was Nabil(GK), Keng Hao(DF), Xing Yang(DF), Luqman(DF),Sijie(MF),Hasyim(MF), Fadhli(MF), Syazwi(FW). Xenon adopted an attacking-minded approachwhich caused attackers like Sijie, Hasyim, Fadhli and Syazwi to play a pass-and-shoot technique and only play defensively when there was trouble. The Home side had a one-goal lead after a mistake by Nabil to manage the home team unconditionally but redeemed himself by making a string of excelent saves. Minutes later, Fadhli, Hasyim and Syazwi play passing well and a visionary cross from Hasyim made Syazwi equalised. Xenon struggled when Fadhli found the ball and shot it pass to breakhrough the deadlock. 2-1 and Xenon was still hungry. Fantastic marking and tackling from the defensive duo of Luqman and Keng Hao caused the team no problem but a failure to clear the ball properly by Keng Hao resulted in the Home side to equalise again. Xenon propelled forward and goals from Syazwi and Fadhli set-up by Hasyim gained Xenon an upper hand. Syazwi completed his hat-trick but scoring a scorcher before half time. Ghaffar FC 2-5 Xenon before half time.

Tension rised as ex-Xenon, Haiqal refused to play with Ghaffar FC due to not blending with the team well. Handicapped, the home side ordered Xenon to drop one of its players to make it a 6-on-6 match. Xenon half-heartedly dropped midfielder Sijie and joined subtistute Xing Yang on the bench. The whistle was blown and Fadhli played a weak game, not able to receive passes properly and failed to shoot due despite given chances. Despite that, Syazwi scored two more goals to add to his collection but the defence of Xenon was weakened due to the drop of Sijie. As such, Ghaffar FC scored two more goals, one by a deflection and the other an own goal by Keng Hao. Keng Hao was subtistuted with Xing Yang to command the defence and within short minutes, Syazwi another goal this time by a short pass from Fadhli. Fadhli was subbed with Sijie and Xenon played more defensively. The final whistle was blown and Xenon have all the reasons to celebrate. Final score : Ghaffar FC 4-8 Xenon.
