Schiltigheim
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Auguste Carrillo got the match started through his kick off. 5 minutes into the match, Macully's goal looked a bit too open when Auguste Carrillo came free, but Jacob Baillif reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Geoffroy Fontenelle thought of kicking away a contribution in front of goal but messed it up so badly that the ball went to the right of an astonished Jacob Baillif, a very annoying self made goal in the 8th minute which led to 1-0. Mathis Caillot fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 18th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Jacob Baillif having to interfere. When Auguste Carrillo came up free with the goalie in the 19th minute, the Schiltigheim fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Auguste Carrillo couldn't finish the play. After some careless play in the Schiltigheim defense, Thibaut Perthuis kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Manuel Chanteau. The Schiltigheim fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Manuel Chanteau should have stopped the shot. After having played for 29 minutes, Bruno Ricordel managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Macully's supporters crossed their fingers, but Bruno Ricordel was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. In the 30th minute, Thibaut Perthuis got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Bruno Ricordel in the 32nd minute of play forced Schiltigheim's goalkeeper Manuel Chanteau to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 34 minutes into the match, Macully's goal looked a bit too open when Auguste Carrillo came free, but Jacob Baillif reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Jacob Baillif showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Auguste Carrillo in the 37th minute of the match. After a rather tough play, Schiltigheim's Auguste Carrillo got a free kick in the 39th minute. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Charles Perche during the 45th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. In the 45th minute, Charles Perche hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Thibaut Perthuis was the one to do the kick off. Auguste Carrillo 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. 58 minutes into the match, Macully's goal looked a bit too open when Auguste Carrillo came free, but Jacob Baillif reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Bruno Ricordel received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 64th minute. Manuel Chanteau tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 78th minute, Thibaut Perthuis managed to get in a good position for a shot. Macully's supporters rose to their feet, but Thibaut Perthuis was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Manuel Chanteau breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. In the 86th minute, Bruno Ricordel made a precise shot to the right of Manuel Chanteau. Schiltigheim's defense was at fault, and the scoreboard reflected the new score, 1-2. Jacob Baillif showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Mathis Caillot, who was totally free with the ball in the 93rd minute. Djamel Chesne's late challenge caught a Macully's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Djamel Chesne helped the player get up and apologised. The supporters of Macully booed when Schiltigheim was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 97 match minutes in a wonderful position. Djamel Chesne didn't get a good kick on the ball. The Macully supporters could be heard counting down the last seconds of the match. They errupted in celebration when the whistle blew, knowing Macully would go home with victory in their luggage after a match that easily could have ended differently.
