Trivia

South China booked Mong Kok Stadium for Yokohama F. Marinos to have their first training section on arrival date. A staff thanked SCAA's manager director Steven Lo at the night for providing them "the school football pitch", despite the fact that Mong Kok Stadium is actually the main venue for Hong Kong major football matches.
