Spectators: 6726 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1726, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Bahi Ben Mbarek took the kick off in the first half of the match. Bahi Ben Mbarek sent away a hard shot on goal in the 3rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. In the 9th minute the ball was on its way in behind Kingswear's goalkeeper Hosni Bourguiba, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. 18 minutes into the match, Waltham Cross's goalkeeper Sofiène Morjane had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Hassan Amri. Hassan Amri fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 21st minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Sofiène Morjane having to interfere. After 27 minutes of play, Waltham Cross's Fraj Jaziri made it 0-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Hosni Bourguiba was left in no man's land by his defense there! Hassan Amri struck a weak shot in the 33rd minute. Sofiène Morjane didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Kingswear. Hamed Ghannouchi hit a great freekick 35 minutes into the match. In the 44th minute Tarak Ouakili shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Hosni Bourguiba saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Tarak Ouakili to make the kick off. Sofiène Morjane took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Hassan Amri, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When the match had gone on for 58 minutes, Bahi Ben Mbarek put it in 1-1 from a short distance just to the right of Sofiène Morjane. In the 63rd minute, Bahi Ben Mbarek got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Alaeddine Kefacha during the 65th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. In the 65th minute, one of Waltham Cross: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 Waltham Cross. In the 67th minute there was a penalty for Kingswear. Abdelbaki Amri stepped forward and shot the ball to the right of a diving Sofiène Morjane. 2-1. If Tarak Ouakili had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 71st minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Mohamed Ali Sallemi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 74th minute. Hosni Bourguiba tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Bahi Ben Mbarek fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 79th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Sofiène Morjane having to interfere. Kingswear's Bahi Ben Mbarek got a good chance for a goal in the 88th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. An unexpectedly hard shot by Hassan Amri in the 90th minute of play forced Waltham Cross's goalkeeper Sofiène Morjane to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Sofiène Morjane showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Hassan Amri, who was totally free with the ball in the 91st minute.
