Woodhall Spa Park
Spectators: 37 (Terracing: 29, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Hamid Latif made the kick off which started today's match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Wahid Zahid in the 8th minute of play forced Eastfield AFC's goalkeeper Hilal Nawfal to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 8 minutes into the game, Fahed Osman was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Eastfield AFC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Woodhall Spa the free kick. Fahed Osman kicked well hit freekick during the 9th minute of the match. In the 11th minute the ball was on its way in behind Eastfield AFC's goalkeeper Hilal Nawfal, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 13 minutes into the match, Woodhall Spa's goal looked a bit too open when Nasri Al Tijani came free, but Wajid Abdul Shakur reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Wajid Abdul Shakur took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Nasri Al Tijani, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 19th match minute, Woodhall Spa was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Hafiz Abou Adal to maneuver through the defense. Woodhall Spa's Wajid Abdul Shakur played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Hamid Latif in the 24th minute of play. In the 25th minute the ball was on its way in behind Woodhall Spa's goalkeeper Wajid Abdul Shakur, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. In the 27th minute of the match Hafiz Khashab sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Wajid Abdul Shakur skillfully saved the ball. 32 minutes into the match, Woodhall Spa's goal looked a bit too open when Nasri Al Tijani came free, but Wajid Abdul Shakur reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. 0-2 became the score in the 34th minute when Hamid Latif elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. After having played for 37 minutes, Wahid Zahid managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Woodhall Spa's supporters crossed their fingers, but Wahid Zahid was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Wahid Zahid recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 43rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If Hamid Latif had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 45th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-2 lead.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Wahid Zahid to make the kick off. Woodhall Spa's Wajid Abdul Shakur played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Hamid Latif in the 51st minute of play. After a rather tough play, Woodhall Spa's Samir Fawaz got a free kick in the 62nd minute. After 65 minutes of play Eastfield AFC's Fahed Osman was too eager in his attempt to stop his opponent and brought him down. With that he got his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. The supporters of Woodhall Spa booed when Eastfield AFC was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 66 match minutes in a wonderful position. Fahed Osman didn't get a good kick on the ball. 67 minutes into the game, Wahid Zahid cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-2. Hilal Nawfal was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. 75 minutes into the match, Woodhall Spa's goalkeeper Wajid Abdul Shakur had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Nasri Al Tijani. Bashir El Askar scored 2-2 in the 83rd match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Hilal Nawfal, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. In the 94th minute, Hafiz Khashab hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.
