Spectators: 6706 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1706, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Djabir Sadi kicked off to start the match. The audience thought a goal was coming when Mohammed Ahmed Ben Djebar got free with Hieronim Zalipski in the 6th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 11 minutes into the game, one of Colonial Heights:s players got tackled near the goal, and the referee blew for a penalty. The referee gave FC Useless Juniors a penalty, 12 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by Mohamed Ben Ahmed Boulebda, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of Colonial Heights's Mahieddine Boulmerka. 0-1. In the 15th minute Djabir Sadi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Hieronim Zalipski saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Rabah Medjoudj fell near the penalty area in the 21st minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored FC Useless Juniors's protests and gave Rabah Medjoudj a yellow card for diving instead. After 21 played minutes FC Useless Juniors got a freekick which was hit by Rabah Medjoudj. Mahieddine Boulmerka made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Maïssa Megharia in the 27th minute of play. 28 minutes into the match, Colonial Heights's goal looked a bit too open when Maïssa Megharia came free, but Mahieddine Boulmerka reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Colonial Heights's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 0-2. After a defensive mix-up in FC Useless Juniors's zone, Mohammed Ahmed Ben Djebar stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Hieronim Zalipski came out of the goal and Mohammed Ahmed Ben Djebar tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Maïssa Megharia was the one to do the kick off. In the 57th minute Maïssa Megharia shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mahieddine Boulmerka saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Hieronim Zalipski took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Djabir Sadi, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Said Cixous had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 61st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Maïssa Megharia struck a weak shot in the 63rd minute. Mahieddine Boulmerka didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for FC Useless Juniors. In the 64th minute, Halim Megharia hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. An unexpectedly hard shot by Maïssa Megharia in the 66th minute of play forced Colonial Heights's goalkeeper Mahieddine Boulmerka to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Colonial Heights's Mahieddine Boulmerka tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 85th minute of the match, Maïssa Megharia tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Mahieddine Boulmerka saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. FC Useless Juniors were awarded a corner in the 87th minute after Colonial Heights's defender lost control of the ball, allowing it to roll out over the line.
