After 4 played minutes, COBRA FC ™'s Khaled Al Wazan shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Farooq Taqi came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in COBRA FC ™ reached it. After 5 played minutes Al Rahabah FC got a freekick which was hit by Darweesh Al Naqi.

In the 41st minute, Karem Al Asuosi hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 44 minutes into the match, Al Rahabah FC's goal looked a bit too open when Abdullah Al Hajri came free, but Farooq Taqi reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
