Spectators: 34 (Terracing: 26, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) Mohamed Yacine made the kick off and thus started the match. An unexpectedly hard shot by Mohamed Yacine in the 3rd minute of play forced Ilion AFC's goalkeeper Tedj Abdenouz to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Tedj Abdenouz took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Mohamed Yacine, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After having played for 12 minutes, Fawzi Bougherra managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Ilion AFC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Fawzi Bougherra was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Tayeb Ouyahia charged in rather forcefully in the 14th minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Tayeb Ouyahia the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. The supporters of Ilion AFC booed when MeaoMe was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 15 match minutes in a wonderful position. Tayeb Ouyahia didn't get a good kick on the ball. Noureddine Zidane might have been able to make a better finish in the 16th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Ali Taha. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Noureddine Zidane ran back to his position shaking his head. Noureddine Zidane sent away a hard shot on goal in the 18th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 22 minutes, Kateb Dahar mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the MeaoMe and the Ilion AFC players grew even worse after the yellow card. Kateb Dahar kicked well hit freekick during the 22nd minute of the match. Ilion AFC's Jean-Michel Saadane couldn't find anyone to pass the ball to, so he shot a long shot towards the goal in the 23rd minute. The shot went wide which resulted in a goal kick for MeaoMe. 28 minutes into the match, Ilion AFC's goal looked a bit too open when Mohamed Yacine came free, but Tedj Abdenouz reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Ali Taha showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ismael Saïfi, who was totally free with the ball in the 33rd minute. With a little luck, Ilion AFC's Tedj Abdenouz got control of the ball when Chadli Guendouz tried to sneak it across the goal line. Ilion AFC's Mahieddine Kerbouche got a good chance for a goal in the 42nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Fawzi Bougherra had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 44th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. MeaoMe's Ali Taha played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Fawzi Bougherra in the 46th minute of play. Fawzi Bougherra fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 48th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ali Taha having to interfere.

Ben Chadl's late challenge caught a MeaoMe's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Ben Chadl helped the player get up and apologised. After a rather tough play, Ilion AFC's Ben Chadl got a free kick in the 55th minute. Ilion AFC's Tedj Abdenouz played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Mamaar Abdessalam in the 56th minute of play. After a defensive mix-up in Ilion AFC's zone, Mohamed Yacine stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Tedj Abdenouz came out of the goal and Mohamed Yacine tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Tedj Abdenouz came out of the goal in the 60th minute to try and stop a shot by MeaoMe's Mohamed Yacine. But to his dismay, Mohamed Yacine quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-0. If Fawzi Bougherra had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 66th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 72nd minute, Noureddine Zidane got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. Tedj Abdenouz made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Mohamed Yacine in the 76th minute of play. In the 84th minute Tayeb Ouyahia shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Tedj Abdenouz saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Noureddine Zidane sent away a hard shot on goal in the 88th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. If Fawzi Bougherra had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 92nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 95thth minute of the game Noureddine Zidane who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but MeaoMe's Ali Taha was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball.
