Uchamps
Spectators: 36 (Terracing: 28, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Donald Ogier started the match with the kick off. 5 minutes into the match, Uchamps's goal looked a bit too open when Ferdinand Zajac came free, but Marius Samyn reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 10th minute Gaétan Bulot shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Marius Samyn saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Marius Samyn took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Ferdinand Zajac, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Jules Escot had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 17th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. An unexpectedly hard shot by Gaétan Bulot in the 22nd minute of play forced Uchamps's goalkeeper Marius Samyn to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

The player immediately received a yellow card. In the 23rd minute, one of Uchamps:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Uchamps. Marius Samyn had in the 25thth minute some difficulties stopping Ronan Marchadour's well aimed penalty as it nearly passed him on his left side, but he still managed to hold the ball. Marius Samyn came out of the goal in the 26th minute to try and stop a shot by Gainneville's Ronan Marchadour. But to his dismay, Ronan Marchadour quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 0-1. In the 31st minute Gaétan Bulot shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Marius Samyn saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Gainneville's Luis Pelle played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Donald Ogier in the 32nd minute of play. Marius Samyn showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Gaétan Bulot in the 33rd minute of the match. After having played for 42 minutes, Gaétan Bulot managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Gainneville's supporters crossed their fingers, but Gaétan Bulot was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Marius Samyn made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Gaétan Bulot in the 44th minute of play. Gaétan Bulot received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 45th minute. Marius Samyn tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Donald Ogier fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 48th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Luis Pelle having to interfere. After the first half Gainneville were leading 0-1. They had played with great self confidence throughout the first half and fully deserved their lead.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Gaétan Bulot made a kick off. Donald Ogier fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 57th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Luis Pelle having to interfere. Gainneville's Luis Pelle played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Jules Escot in the 69th minute of play. Luis Pelle showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Donald Ogier in the 73rd minute of the match. After 78 minutes, Donald Ogier made it 1-1 with a short kick to the right side. Gainneville's Luis Pelle tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. An unexpectedly hard shot by Terry Marien in the 81st minute of play forced Gainneville's goalkeeper Luis Pelle to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Constantin Bessière sent away a hard shot on goal in the 89th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After some fancy dribbling in the 95th minute, Jules Escot managed to get in a good position for a shot. Uchamps's supporters rose to their feet, but Jules Escot was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Luis Pelle breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Both teams had looked equal from kick-off, and no-one was surprised when the match finally ended in a draw.
