The match had barely been underway for five minutes when the opponents scored two goals in quick succession, dealing a heavy blow to Group B's morale.
Vincent Weijl on the left flank was especially hard-hit.
Group A pressed their advantage, repeatedly exploiting Yang Yang's one-on-one ability on the right. He shook off Vincent Weijl time and again, then crossed after breaking through down the wing, creating dangerous chances inside the penalty area.
In the eleventh minute, another breakthrough and cross came from Yang Yang on the right. Ibrahimovic calmly slotted the ball home, completing his Brace.

Group B then began to retreat into defense. Yang Yang soon seized another opportunity, cutting inside with the ball from the right. After drawing Vincent Weijl toward him, he suddenly passed the ball out to the right. Trabelsi, who had surged forward at full speed, took a huge touch toward the byline before crossing.
The Swedish Striker again reached the dropping ball first in the penalty area and sent it into the net once more, completing his Hat-trick.
