Wang Yanwen and Mahira Ali got the ball rolling for Beijing Jingtan in the opening 20 minutes with the evening’s first look at goal, but both attempts failed to trouble keeper Maftuna Jonimqulova.  

The home side bided their time, and struck in the 27th minute when Lyudmila Karachik, coming down the left and cutting the ball back from the edge of the six-yard box to an unmarked Mehribon Egamberdieva, who happily knocked it home into an empty net.

A rattled Beijing Jingtan attempted to find the equaliser but were let down by weak finishing, Liu Xuanchi seeing her shot from distance deflected while Adama Congo’s tentative tries from the left and 18-yards, respectively, were comfortably dealt with by Jonimqulova.

Si Yu’s wayward header off a set-piece by Ali in time added on summed up the visitors' patchy first-half performance as Nasaf went into the break with a deserved lead.  
Neither side created any openings in the first 15 minutes of the second half as play was continually delayed, with the Nasaf keeper again making light work of  Zhao Yujie’s shot from range in the 69th minute.  

The China PR side, however, finally leveled in the 70th minute when Yanwen took advantage of a packed goalmouth and a Nasaf defence in shambles to bend her shot past a hesitating Jonimqulova, with the goal confirmed after a review.

The striker then stunned the home crowd with the decisive goal in the 84th minute, curling in from an 18-yard free-kick that took a slight deflection off Nasaf captain Nilufar Kudratova and landed in the bottom left corner.
