Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) 3 minutes into the match, Dscreet Stars's goal looked a bit too open when Hocine Souakri came free, but Tahar Bencheikh reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Cheb Bouteflika sent away a hard shot on goal in the 4th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After some fancy dribbling in the 6th minute, Houari Fanon managed to get in a good position for a shot.

Tahar Bencheikh took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Mouloud Mamouni, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 8th minute, Hamid Bitat hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Cheb Bouteflika had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 13th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 15th minute, Mustapha Djamel hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.

The Dscreet Stars fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 3-0. When Dscreet Stars's Houari Fanon in the 69th minute got a chance for a shot 69th didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Petal's goalie prevented a goal. The supporters of Dscreet Stars booed when Petal was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 70 match minutes in a wonderful position. Karim Abrika didn't get a good kick on the ball.

The referee had no choice but to show him the red card. 84 minutes into the game, Houari Fanon cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 4-0. Toufik Ahmed was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in.
