Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Fadhil Aziz took the kick off in the first half of the match. Fadhil Aziz charged in rather forcefully in the 9th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Fadhil Aziz the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. The supporters of The King Football Manger booed when Temecula was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 9 match minutes in a wonderful position. Fadhil Aziz didn't get a good kick on the ball. Mourad Doutté fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 16th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ahmed Medjoudj having to interfere. Temecula's Ahmed Medjoudj proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 19th minute of the match, managed to save Temecula from getting a goal against them. After a defensive mix-up in The King Football Manger's zone, Fadhil Aziz stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. François Zéroual came out of the goal and Fadhil Aziz tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 25th minute, Hamid Medjoudj hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After 30 played minutes Temecula got a freekick which was hit by Hakim Ulansi.

Unfortunately, the ball was poorly hit and landed closer to the corner than to the goal. In the 38thth minute of the game Fadhil Aziz who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but The King Football Manger's François Zéroual was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. Karim Ziani kicked well hit freekick during the 41st minute of the match. After some fancy dribbling in the 42nd minute, Fadhil Aziz managed to get in a good position for a shot. Temecula's supporters rose to their feet, but Fadhil Aziz was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. François Zéroual breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. If Fadhil Aziz had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 44th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Abderraouf Benarbia sent away a hard shot on goal in the 45th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Fadhil Aziz received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 47th minute. François Zéroual tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Hameur Moussa to strike the kick off in the second half. Fadhil Aziz struck a weak shot in the 55th minute. François Zéroual didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Temecula.

The referee ignored The King Football Manger's protests and gave Smail Temmam a yellow card for diving instead. After 57 played minutes The King Football Manger got a freekick which was hit by Smail Temmam. In the 62nd minute, Temecula's Fadhil Aziz dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 0-2.

The referee ignored The King Football Manger's protests and gave Nourredine Fadhil Mohamed a yellow card for diving instead. Nourredine Fadhil Mohamed kicked well hit freekick during the 72nd minute of the match. Nasreddine Bensaoula was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 73rd played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. François Zéroual was in exellent shape and made a fantastic save when he, in the 82nd minute of the match, managed to get hold of the ball after a long shot from Abdelaziz Abdessalam. Temecula's Fadhil Aziz got a good chance for a goal in the 83rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar.
