Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Vivien Pigne took the kick off in the first half of the match.

Michael Boiteau's late challenge caught a Orcines's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card.

In the 52nd minute, Prosper Védrine hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.

Yann Bauduin made an important save on a dangerous shot by Vivien Pigne in the 69th minute. Merlin Charlet hit a great freekick 71 minutes into the match. After 72 played minutes, Frouville's Daniel Gharbi shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Antonin Sorin came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Frouville reached it. Orcines's Antonin Sorin played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Jean-Christophe Lamblin in the 73rd minute of play. If Arthur Ayrault had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 77th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Arthur Ayrault struck a weak shot in the 85th minute. Antonin Sorin didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Frouville. 4-0 became the score in the 91st minute when Jean-Christophe Lamblin elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. Frouville were really happy, having secured the victory after a very even contest. They thanked the players of Orcines for a fine match.
