League Play-Off

Stone
Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Mohamed al-Munsif Bey got the match started through his kick off. Mohamed al-Munsif Bey received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 8th minute. David Robime tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Issam Ladgham in the 11th minute of play forced Stone AFC's goalkeeper David Robime to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After some careless play in the Edgware defense, Aymen Jaidi kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Anouar Ben Salah. The Edgware fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Anouar Ben Salah should have stopped the shot. In the 17th minute the ball was on its way in behind Stone AFC's goalkeeper David Robime, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Anouar Ben Salah made an important save on a dangerous shot by Riadh Kasraoui in the 31st minute. An unexpectedly hard shot by Aymen Jaidi in the 32nd minute of play forced Edgware's goalkeeper Anouar Ben Salah to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Samir Khemili hit a great freekick 33 minutes into the match. In the 36th minute, Sabri Mor hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After 39 played minutes Stone AFC got a freekick which was hit by Fatah Sallemi. After 40 played minutes, Edgware's Hedi Djait shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper David Robime came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Edgware reached it. 42 minutes into the match, Mohamed al-Munsif Bey had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of David Robime. Stone AFC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Mohamed al-Munsif Bey was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Aymen Jaidi stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Aymen Jaidi recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 59th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. 64 minutes into the match, Stone AFC's goal looked a bit too open when Mohamed al-Munsif Bey came free, but David Robime reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Issam Ladgham's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but David Robime firmly grabbed it by the left post. If Aymen Jaidi had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 72nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. With a little luck, Stone AFC's David Robime got control of the ball when Issam Ladgham tried to sneak it across the goal line. Aymen Jaidi fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 85th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Anouar Ben Salah having to interfere. Tarak Badra kicked well hit freekick during the 86th minute of the match. After 89 played minutes Edgware got a freekick which was hit by Samir Khemili. Aymen Jaidi sent away a hard shot on goal in the 91st minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Ali Nafti's late challenge caught a Edgware's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Ali Nafti helped the player get up and apologised. Ali Nafti hit a great freekick 96 minutes into the match. The second half was just like the first, even and exciting. The match ended in a draw.
