Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Saleh Al Khaled took the kick off in the first half of the match. Anwar Al Sallal recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 4th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal.

With an extended leg and a bit of luck Habib Shrean prevented the ball from getting in the gole.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Sayer Al Sarraf was the one to do the kick off. Haitham Al Ammar sent away a hard shot on goal in the 52nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. 56 minutes into the match, Alville AFC's Yaqoot Al Sharaf sent off a blazing shot straight on target, a shot that Habib Shrean narrowly saved just below the crossbar. After some fancy dribbling in the 60th minute, Yaqoot Al Sharaf managed to get in a good position for a shot.
