Spectators: 7656 (Terracing: 5744, Seating: 1760, VIP seats: 152) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Bell McLiam got the match started through his kick off. Emmet Tracy fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 3rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Berrach McWilliam having to interfere. Bercnan McBrand sent away a hard shot on goal in the 12th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal. A collision led to Belra getting a freekick after 14 minutes play. Derry Sheridan hit a great ball. If Bell McLiam had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 16th minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. Belra's Bairee Dimson played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Bell McLiam in the 19th minute of play. After 20 played minutes Belra got a freekick which was hit by Bryan Harkin. Branigan Perth was probably a little too eager to shoot when he, in the 20th played minute, shot the ball from way out. The shot was hard, but the ball flew wide of the goal. In the 26th minute Bercnan McBrand shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Berrach McWilliam saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Torna Frankson might have been able to make a better finish in the 38th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Bairee Dimson. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Torna Frankson ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 47th minute of the match, Bell McLiam tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Bairee Dimson saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line. All the noise was coming from the home fans when the whistle went for half-time. The home team had fought hardest to put themselves in a deserved lead.

Bell McLiam kicked well hit freekick during the 51st minute of the match. Kevinn Ryan might have been able to make a better finish in the 53rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Berrach McWilliam. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Kevinn Ryan ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 57th minute Bell McLiam shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Bairee Dimson saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Bercnan McBrand struck a weak shot in the 58th minute. Berrach McWilliam didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Belra. If Bercnan McBrand had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 60th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Berrach McWilliam stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Bercnan McBrand's shot from short distance in the 64th minute. Emmet Tracy hit a great freekick 66 minutes into the match. 70 minutes into the game, Blaire Dimson was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. RockoR's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Belra the free kick. The audience thought a goal was coming when Bercnan McBrand got free with Berrach McWilliam in the 71st minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. In the 82nd match minute, Belra was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Bryan Harkin to maneuver through the defense. Thanks to Belra's goalie finding himself so far out he could grab the ball Torna Frankson tried to make a shot after getting passed the defense. Bairee Dimson seemed to really have strength and confidence after that save. Emmet Tracy fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 92nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Berrach McWilliam having to interfere. RockoR walked away with a well-earned victory that was much celebrated by the crowd.
