But he was not to be denied. When he volleyed a shot on the turn.

Cheen Ming round up the comeback with an individual effort. He won the ball in midfield before dribbling all the way into the penalty box. He saw the keeper poorly positioned, with a huge gap at the near post. With that, he slot the ball in at the near post to put ODS in the comfort zone.

Towards the end of the game, Ken's freekick was narrowly wide when it went out off the top of the crossbar.
