The nice shot from Ali Wisniewski in the 45thth minute just in front of the goal should have ended in point on the board, but Claude Decaux had a great feel for the game and superbly saved the ball from getting in by the left post. Désiré Gourdin was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 47th minute.
