[edit] Trivia

Happy Valley has lost in the League Cup for the 5th consecutive season.
Happy Valley suffers their 7th consecutive losses in the final of local competitions.
All three goals in the final were from free kicks. The goal of Happy Valley was from a Penalty kick while the two goals of Kitchee were from a Direct free kick and Indirect free kick respectively.
The semi-finals were originally scheduled to play in Mong Kok Stadium. However, the 4 teams in the sem-finals suggested HKFA to move the matches to Hong Kong Stadium. However, after the matches, many football fans expressed their opinions that this is a main cause for the low attendance on that day.
