In the second half, Zhejiang A took control of the game and dominated possession, creating numerous chances for themselves. They eventually found the breakthrough when a header from a set-piece was headed into the back of the net by one of their players.
Despite being behind, Shandong A refused to give up and fought hard to get back into the game. They created several chances of their own in the closing stages of the match, but unfortunately, they couldn't find the equalizer.
