The supporters of Westcliff on Sea FC booed when Oxford United was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 11 match minutes in a wonderful position. Houari Zemmam didn't get a good kick on the ball. 18 minutes into the match, Kader Belghith notched a goal, 1-0, to the right of Westcliff on Sea FC's Madani Kacha. Madani Kacha was clearly disgusted with the effort of the defense and let the defenders know about it. Madani Kacha made a fantastic save in the 23rd minute, when Kader Belghith sent off a good shot on target. With his leg Madani Kacha managed to avoid a goal in the 26thth minute, when Oxford United's Anaba Abrika fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. In the 28th match minute, Westcliff on Sea FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Bahasz Mamouni to maneuver through the defense. Mustapha Moll recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 30th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. If Rabah Kholt had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 32nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The supporters of Westcliff on Sea FC booed when Oxford United was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 44 match minutes in a wonderful position. Anaba Abrika didn't get a good kick on the ball.

The wind increased when Mustapha Moll made the kick off in the second half. If Kader Belghith had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 57th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. A collision led to Westcliff on Sea FC getting a freekick after 60 minutes play. Ilan Abrika hit a great ball. 61 minutes into the match, Saïf Mami had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Madani Kacha. Westcliff on Sea FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Saïf Mami was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-1. Oxford United's Yahia Drioueche played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Mustapha Moll in the 73rd minute of play. Rabah Kholt sent away a hard shot on goal in the 75th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Mustapha Moll received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 77th minute. Yahia Drioueche tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. In the 82nd minute, Saïf Mami hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After a rather tough play, Westcliff on Sea FC's Akim Aribi got a free kick in the 84th minute. Abdessalem Amri was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 86th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. After a defensive mix-up in Westcliff on Sea FC's zone, Kader Belghith stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Madani Kacha came out of the goal and Kader Belghith tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. In the 96th minute Kader Belghith shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Madani Kacha saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. If Saïf Mami had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 100th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Oxford United were really happy, having secured the victory after a very even contest. They thanked the players of Westcliff on Sea FC for a fine match.
