Spectators: 6738 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1738, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Habib Belgacem took the kick off in the first half of the match. When Habib Belgacem came up free with the goalie in the 6th minute, the Leominster City 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 Habib Belgacem couldn't finish the play. In the 11th minute of the match, Habib Belgacem tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Haythem Bargawi saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line.

In the 15th minute, Helmi Mzali hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field.

The long shot by Khaled Chikhaoui in the 69th minute really tested Hamed Mustapha's skills. The ball was on its way into the goal to the left of him when he managed to stretch himself and save the shot and avoid a goal. Wissem Chiki did some fancy footwork in front of goal and succeeded to deceive the defenders so he could slam the ball in 0-1 to the left of a surprised Hamed Mustapha 71 minutes into the match. The supporters of Gloucester United booed when Leominster City was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 78 match minutes in a wonderful position. Hassine Majeri didn't get a good kick on the ball.

When the final whistle was heard the away supporters stood up and showed their joy. Gloucester United had managed to secure a win in what was a close match throughout.
