Pieter-Maarten Lissens, 5 minutes into the match, dribbled the ball up the side of the field and decided to take a long shot at the goal.

Beverbeek's Ramon Keldermans got a good chance for a goal in the 33rd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Hugo Billen was the one to do the kick off. If Mathias Van Achtens had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 53rd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.

Mathias Van Achtens received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 73rd minute. Jeoffrey Descamps tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. When the match clock showed 75 minutes, the score became 2-0 when Hugo Billen sped through Beverbeek's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Jeoffrey Descamps. The long shot by Jan-Joost De Block in the 86th minute really tested Ignace De Wortelaer's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. KVS branst's Ignace De Wortelaer proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 87th minute of the match, managed to save KVS branst from getting a goal against them. In the 89th minute the ball was on its way in behind Beverbeek's goalkeeper Jeoffrey Descamps, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar.
