Expresso Ranelagh's Fabian Abecia quickly snatched the ball and retained possesion. After a defensive mix-up in Les Pionniers de Touraine's zone, 邓昆烽 stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Adrien Tanneau came out of the goal and 邓昆烽 tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by 邓昆烽 in the 18th minute of play forced Les Pionniers de Touraine's goalkeeper Adrien Tanneau to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Adrien Tanneau showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from 邓昆烽, who was totally free with the ball in the 18th minute. 31 minutes into the match, Expresso Ranelagh's goal looked a bit too open when Moussa Blanquart came free, but Hu Chao Hai reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After some careless play in the Les Pionniers de Touraine defense, 邓昆烽 kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Adrien Tanneau. The Les Pionniers de Touraine fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Adrien Tanneau should have stopped the shot. In the 40th minute the ball was on its way in behind Les Pionniers de Touraine's goalkeeper Adrien Tanneau, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 邓昆烽 struck a weak shot in the 42nd minute. Adrien Tanneau didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Expresso Ranelagh. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Expresso Ranelagh fully deserved thier win.
