Ksar-el-Kebir
Spectators: 6758 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1758, VIP seats: 0) Dark clouds were building up when the players entered the field. None of the them looked very eager to play. Magher Boudarbala started the match with the kick off. Ajeddig Anis struck a weak shot in the 3rd minute. Ghalib El Asmar didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Asilah Union. Asilah Union's Winaruz Hamdani played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Magher Boudarbala in the 8th minute of play. Ajeddig Anis scored 0-1 in the 12th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Ghalib El Asmar, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Asilah Union's Winaruz Hamdani proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 16th minute of the match, managed to save Asilah Union from getting a goal against them. With his leg Winaruz Hamdani managed to avoid a goal in the 20thth minute, when Ksar-el-Kebir's Izri Dolmi fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. Magher Boudarbala fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 21st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Winaruz Hamdani having to interfere. Ayur Ziyati might have been able to make a better finish in the 23rd minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Ghalib El Asmar. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Ayur Ziyati ran back to his position shaking his head. Izri Dolmi could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 27th minute of the match, but Winaruz Hamdani made a huge save. Magher Boudarbala received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 35th minute. Winaruz Hamdani tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Ajeddig Anis received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 41st minute. Ghalib El Asmar tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Ghalib El Asmar made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Ayur Ziyati in the 44th minute of play. The audience was convinced that Ayur Ziyati's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Ghalib El Asmar was relentless in the 46th minute of the game. The score stood at 1-1 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Ajeddig Anis stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. When Ajeddig Anis came up free with the goalie in the 57th minute, the Asilah Union 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 Ajeddig Anis couldn't finish the play. With 61 minutes on the clock, Zakariya Hamidouch commited a dangerous tackle. The referee had no choice but to show him the red card. In the 61st minute, one of Asilah Union:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Asilah Union. 64 minutes had been played when some careless play by Asilah Union's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Azulay El Bahri was slow to take the kick. During this time Ksar-el-Kebir's players had a chance to rest. The corner went over the outstretched arms of Asilah Union's goalie and right to Rachad Bendahman. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. Asilah Union's manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. Winaruz Hamdani came out of the goal in the 70th minute to try and stop a shot by Ksar-el-Kebir's Izri Dolmi. But to his dismay, Izri Dolmi quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 2-1. Izri Dolmi recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 78th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Ayur Ziyati sent away a hard shot on goal in the 83rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Izri Dolmi in the 89th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Winaruz Hamdani saved Asilah Union from getting behind. Ghalib El Asmar made an important save on a dangerous shot by Ayur Ziyati in the 92nd minute. Izri Dolmi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 94th minute. Winaruz Hamdani tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Magher Boudarbala in the 98th minute of play forced Asilah Union's goalkeeper Winaruz Hamdani to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Ksar-el-Kebir were really happy, having secured the victory after a very even contest. They thanked the players of Asilah Union for a fine match.
