Thanks to some nice foot action and superb ball handling Mazhar Moheb in the 5th minute a chance for a shot on goal. With an extended leg and a bit of luck Gaser Desouqy prevented the ball from getting in the gole. Osama Mohab was a little too slow when Abdel Masoud Bahy got a fine hit on the ball which went right into the goal in the 8th minute. The score was now 1-0. 13 minutes into the match, Naturah's goal looked a bit too open when Hazem Magdy came free, but Gaser Desouqy reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Ziyad Aino's late challenge caught a Rhinocolorum's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Ziyad Aino helped the player get up and apologised. If Hazem Magdy had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 17th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Gaser Desouqy took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Hazem Magdy, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After some fancy dribbling in the 19th minute, Mazhar Moheb managed to get in a good position for a shot. Rhinocolorum's supporters rose to their feet, but Mazhar Moheb was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Gaser Desouqy breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick.

Abdel Masoud Bahy received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 42nd minute. Osama Mohab tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.
