After having played for 46 minutes, Davy Archambault managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

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.

56 minutes into the match, Theo Soullard had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Rodrigue Delrue.

Jean-Christophe Cochin breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 85 minutes into the match, Abbaye's goal looked a bit too open when Émile Tavernier came free, but Rodrigue Delrue reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. After some careless play in the Abbaye defense, Pascal Sabatie kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Rodrigue Delrue. The Abbaye fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Rodrigue Delrue should have stopped the shot.
