Spectators: 6730 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1730, VIP seats: 0) Ali Zahaf made the kick off and thus started the match. After a defensive mix-up in Holmfirth United's zone, Zied Dhouib stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ajmi Thabet came out of the goal and Zied Dhouib tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Zied Dhouib recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 20th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 25 minutes into the match, Crookes United's goal looked a bit too open when Ali Zahaf came free, but Jaouhar Tlili reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Jaouhar Tlili was a little too slow when Ali Zahaf got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 26th minute. The score was now 1-0. Aymen Mechergui took the ball and in the 30 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Ajmi Thabet . Ajmi Thabet dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-1. Zied Dhouib received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 33rd minute. Ajmi Thabet tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After a rather tough play, Crookes United's Zied Dhouib got a free kick in the 39th minute. Aymen Mechergui sent away a hard shot on goal in the 41st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 45th play minute Hatem Saidi came free and shot an unsuspected shot which went into goal from the right pole behind a surprised Jaouhar Tlili. 2-1. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-1 at half-time.

After 52 played minutes Holmfirth United got a freekick which was hit by Aymen Kasraoui. 54 minutes into the match, Aymen Mechergui notched a goal, 2-2, to the right of Holmfirth United's Ajmi Thabet . Ajmi Thabet was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Crookes United's Jaouhar Tlili played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Ali Zahaf in the 74th minute of play. After 77 played minutes, Holmfirth United's Karim Masmoudi shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Jaouhar Tlili 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 Holmfirth United reached it. If Ali Zahaf had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 80th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 88th minute, Ali Zahaf ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Jaouhar Tlili was frozen by the shot and now it was 3-2. Chaker Slimane recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 94th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After 95th play minutes Zied Dhouib shot 3-3, a short shot which went by Ajmi Thabet and just under the crossbar into goal. The Crookes United players were the happier at the end of the match as they had prevented Holmfirth United from taking control. The game ends in a draw.
