Fabiano Cerrone was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. 18 minutes into the game, Bruno Di Battista was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player.

Aurelio Pietropaolo scored 3-1 in the 27th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Cesare Bardella, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Anthony Bartolucci charged in rather forcefully in the 32nd minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Anthony Bartolucci the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. A collision led to Casaccia AFC getting a freekick after 32 minutes play.
