Spectators: 6734 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1734, VIP seats: 0) Asot's Chaouki Bouali started the match with a crisp pass. The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. After 5 played minutes Asot got a freekick which was hit by Ayèche David. In the 9th minute, Emir Radhouani had to be helped off the field due to a pulled leg muscle. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Sami Chikhaoui during the 10th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. Hedi Amira Jaziri blasted a shot towards the goal in the 19th minute, but the shot hit the top of the crossbar and went out without Abdelhamid Ziadi having to make a save. Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Sofiène Chedli in the 23rd minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Mustafa Ben Diwa prevented the ball from getting in the gole. Tintagel United's Sofiène Chedli got a good chance for a goal in the 24th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Chaouki Bouali sent away a hard shot on goal in the 27th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Chaouki Bouali took the ball and in the 32 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Abdelhamid Ziadi. Abdelhamid Ziadi 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. Chaouki Bouali recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 39th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. When Chaouki Bouali came up free with the goalie in the 41st minute, the Asot fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Chaouki Bouali couldn't finish the play. After a defensive mix-up in Asot's zone, Ahmed Mnari stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Mustafa Ben Diwa came out of the goal and Ahmed Mnari tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After a very even first half the match was still tied. The players went to their respective dressing rooms to discuss the tactics for the second half.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Ahmed Mnari made a kick off. The audience was convinced that Ahmed Mnari's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Mustafa Ben Diwa was relentless in the 52nd minute of the game. Mustafa Ben Diwa showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ahmed Mnari, who was totally free with the ball in the 54th minute. Slim Ben El Hadj Kacem kicked well hit freekick during the 55th minute of the match. Abdelhamid Ziadi took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Chaouki Bouali, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After some fancy dribbling in the 64th minute, Hedi Amira Jaziri managed to get in a good position for a shot. Asot's supporters rose to their feet, but Hedi Amira Jaziri was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Abdelhamid Ziadi breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 68 minutes into the match, Asot's Chaouki Bouali sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Abdelhamid Ziadi narrowly saved just below the crossbar. 71 minutes into the game, Hedi Amira Boularès was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Asot's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Tintagel United the free kick. The supporters of Tintagel United booed when Asot was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 71 match minutes in a wonderful position. Hedi Amira Boularès didn't get a good kick on the ball. Abdelhamid Ziadi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Chaouki Bouali in the 75th minute of play. A collision led to Tintagel United getting a freekick after 76 minutes play. Sofiène Chedli hit a great ball. Hedi Amira Boularès was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 77th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. In the 87th minute, Ahmed Mnari left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Tintagel United fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-3.
