Mount Horeb Park
Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Madhi Chebal started the match with the kick off. Smail Sennaoui's late challenge caught a Mount Horeb's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Smail Sennaoui helped the player get up and apologised. Smail Sennaoui hit a great freekick 5 minutes into the match. Fadhil Brahimi took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Madhi Chebal, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Fadhil Brahimi showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Lili Fahima in the 8th minute of the match. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Mahmoud Iles during the 10th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. The supporters of Mount Horeb booed when Greenport was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 10 match minutes in a wonderful position. Mahmoud Iles didn't get a good kick on the ball. Mustapha Sam kicked well hit freekick during the 12th minute of the match. The audience thought a goal was coming when Madhi Chebal got free with Fadhil Brahimi in the 17th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. 18 minutes into the game, Hakim Hamrouche was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Greenport's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Mount Horeb the free kick. Hakim Hamrouche kicked well hit freekick during the 18th minute of the match. In the 19th minute of the match Abdelhamid Messaoud shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Fadhil Brahimi showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. Madhi Chebal received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Fadhil Brahimi came out and tried to block the shot, but Madhi Chebal slotted it home off the left post making it 1-0 in the 21st minute. Cheb Assad received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 29th minute. Fadhil Brahimi tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Fadhil Brahimi stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Madhi Chebal's shot from short distance in the 32nd minute. Mouloud Merah hit a great freekick 35 minutes into the match. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Smail Sennaoui in the 36th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Rafik Saïfi saved Mount Horeb from getting behind. An unexpectedly hard shot by Mahmoud Iles in the 39th minute of play forced Mount Horeb's goalkeeper Rafik Saïfi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Rafik Saïfi showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Mahmoud Iles, who was totally free with the ball in the 42nd minute. The home fans were very happy to see their team leading 2-0 at half-time.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Smail Sennaoui stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. In the 54th minute of the match, Mahmoud Iles got a very nice opportunity to score, but Rafik Saïfi was well-placed and pushed the ball away from the goal at the left post. In the 57th minute, Madhi Chebal 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. Madhi Chebal scored 3-0 in the 59th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Fadhil Brahimi, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. If Cheb Assad had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 63rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Cheb Assad took the ball and in the 65 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Fadhil Brahimi. Fadhil Brahimi dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 4-0. After some fancy dribbling in the 78th minute, Mouloud Merah managed to get in a good position for a shot. Mount Horeb's supporters rose to their feet, but Mouloud Merah was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Fadhil Brahimi breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Fadhil Brahimi made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Madhi Chebal in the 79th minute of play. Smail Sennaoui was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 82nd minute. Greenport's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. Ahmed Badis lost his temper 88 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card. After 87 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Greenport! The referee gave Mount Horeb a penalty, 90 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by Cheb Assad, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of Greenport's Fadhil Brahimi. 5-0. Mustapha Sam sent away a hard shot on goal in the 94th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 98 played minutes Greenport got a freekick which was hit by Mustapha Sam. There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Mount Horeb fully deserved thier win.
