Spectators: 7635 (Terracing: 6000, Seating: 1600, VIP seats: 35) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Abdelaziz Fadhil Mohamed took the kick off in the first half of the match. 5 minutes into the game, Nasser Mohand was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Negaunee FC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave JadeDragon the free kick. Cheikha El-Hadi struck a weak shot in the 9th minute. Smail Diss didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Negaunee FC. Abdelhamid Kerbouche kicked well hit freekick during the 12th minute of the match. In the 19th minute, Cheb Mohand hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 20 minutes into the match, JadeDragon's goal looked a bit too open when Cheikha El-Hadi came free, but Smail Diss reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 21 minutes into the match, Yacine Belkhadem had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Smail Diss. JadeDragon's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Yacine Belkhadem was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. A collision led to JadeDragon getting a freekick after 25 minutes play. Cheb Mohand hit a great ball. In the 26th minute of the match Mohamed Hamruche sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Smail Diss skillfully saved the ball. After 29 played minutes, Negaunee FC's Chakib Matmour shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Smail Diss 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 Negaunee FC reached it. After 30 played minutes JadeDragon got a freekick which was hit by Abd al-Asis Messaoud. An unexpectedly hard shot by Yacine Belkhadem in the 34th minute of play forced JadeDragon's goalkeeper Smail Diss to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

The wind increased when Yacine Belkhadem made the kick off in the second half. Yacine Belkhadem recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 54th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. After having played for 56 minutes, Zoheir Otman managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. JadeDragon's supporters crossed their fingers, but Zoheir Otman was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Cheikha El-Hadi who was well placed in front of the goal fired away a dangerous shot that in the 60thth minute tested the skills of Smail Diss when he managed to save the team from getting behind. After 61 minutes, Rachid Azem mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Negaunee FC and the JadeDragon players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 62nd minute, Rachid Azem hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Abdelaziz Fadhil Mohamed had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 67th minute.
