Cesaire Parish sent away a hard shot on goal in the 11th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Cesaire Parish's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Vince Jarrell read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 18th minute of play. Eldridge Kendall showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Marty Wang, who was totally free with the ball in the 21st minute. Harley Rivers fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 22nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Vince Jarrell having to interfere. In the 24th minute Cesaire Parish shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Vince Jarrell saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Eldridge Kendall made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Marty Wang in the 26th minute of play. After 28 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Snowden FC! When the match had been going on for 29 minutes, Gambo's Asa Chaney got an opportunity to shoot a penalty. He stayed cool and waited for the goalkeeper to move, before he confidently shot the ball into the goal, to the left of Eldridge Kendall. In the 43rd minute, Marty Wang got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal.
When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Marty Wang made a kick off. Vince Jarrell made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Cesaire Parish in the 54th minute of play. Eldridge Kendall took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Marty Wang, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 69th minute, Eugenio Lacroix hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. An unexpectedly hard shot by Eliseo DuLin in the 70th minute of play forced Snowden FC's goalkeeper Eldridge Kendall to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Harley Rivers could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 74th minute of the match, but Vince Jarrell made a huge save. Gambo's Vince Jarrell proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 76th minute of the match, managed to save Gambo from getting a goal against them. In the 89th minute of the match, Roger Connell got a very nice opportunity to score, but Vince Jarrell was well-placed and pushed the ball away from the goal at the left post. After a defensive mix-up in Gambo's zone, Cesaire Parish stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Vince Jarrell came out of the goal and Cesaire Parish tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. If Cesaire Parish had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 95th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The Gambo support was delighted with a win in a match that could easily have ended differently.
