Stade Beauzelle
Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Aurélien Cuq got the match started through his kick off. The supporters of Beauzelle booed when Rungis was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 4 match minutes in a wonderful position. Igor Morard didn't get a good kick on the ball. In the 8th minute, Beauzelle's Omer Joulie seemed to kick out at an opponent. The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Omer Joulie the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of Beauzelle protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Omer Joulie had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch. The referee blew the whistle for a penalty in the 7th minute of the game. One of Beauzelle:s players had nearly got his shirt torn off by an opponent while getting free in front of Rungis:s goal. Pierre-Antoine Beaudouin made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Aurélien Cuq in the 13th minute of play. Aurélien Cuq sent away a hard shot on goal in the 17th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. An unexpectedly hard shot by Aurélien Cuq in the 20th minute of play forced Beauzelle's goalkeeper Pierre-Antoine Beaudouin to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.

Pierre-Antoine Beaudouin took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Aurélien Cuq, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 36 minutes into the game, Gilbert Claire was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Rungis's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Beauzelle the free kick. Gilbert Claire hit a great freekick 36 minutes into the match. Joffrey Mari's late challenge caught a Beauzelle's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card.

One of Rungis:s players had nearly got his shirt torn off by an opponent while getting free in front of Beauzelle:s goal. The score stood at 1-1 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

The wind increased when Axel Thibaut made the kick off in the second half. Aurélien Cuq fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 51st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Pierre-Antoine Beaudouin having to interfere. 53 minutes into the match, Rungis's goal looked a bit too open when Axel Thibaut came free, but Ryan Drocourt reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. The audience was convinced that Axel Thibaut's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Ryan Drocourt was relentless in the 56th minute of the game. A collision led to Beauzelle getting a freekick after 58 minutes play. Leonard Adam hit a great ball. Rungis's Joffrey Mari shoveled away a really nice long shot in the 59th minute of play. The shot was stopped by Pierre-Antoine Beaudouin but with some difficulty. If Axel Thibaut had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 67th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Beauzelle's Steven Pigeard got a good chance for a goal in the 69th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Beauzelle's Pierre-Antoine Beaudouin played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Aurélien Cuq in the 72nd minute of play.

Axel Thibaut fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 82nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ryan Drocourt having to interfere. After having played for 84 minutes, Aurélien Cuq managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Rungis's supporters crossed their fingers, but Aurélien Cuq 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 85th minute, Sam Bruder hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. If Aurélien Cuq had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 87th minute.
