The crowd had been anticipating this game for weeks and the excitement in the stadium was easily visible. 4 minutes into the match, Maurice Combette had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Felix Wozniak. Dreff's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Maurice Combette was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 0-1. When Marouane Boulain came up free with the goalie in the 11th minute, the Dreff fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Marouane Boulain couldn't finish the play. When the match clock showed 14 minutes, the score became 0-2 when Theo Maunier sped through Dreff's defense and sent away a curving shot that went into the net to the right of Felix Wozniak.

An unexpectedly hard shot by Maurice Combette in the 38th minute of play forced Dreff's goalkeeper Felix Wozniak to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.
