Spectators: 1756 (Terracing: 0, Seating: 1747, VIP seats: 9) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Mohieddine Khelil took the kick off in the first half of the match. 10 minutes into the match, CLUBISTIANO's goal looked a bit too open when Mohieddine Khelil came free, but Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. An unexpectedly hard shot by Adel Sfar in the 13th minute of play forced CLUBISTIANO's goalkeeper Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After 14 minutes, Najeh Essediri mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the CLUBISTIANO and the Eastfield players grew even worse after the yellow card. In the 14th match minute, CLUBISTIANO was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Najeh Essediri to maneuver through the defense. Andrézinho Santos's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Mehdi Sallemi read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 20th minute of play. Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Mohieddine Khelil in the 24th minute of play. Mohieddine Khelil sent away a hard shot on goal in the 26th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After some careless play in the CLUBISTIANO defense, Mohieddine Khelil kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali. The CLUBISTIANO fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali should have stopped the shot. CLUBISTIANO's Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Adel Sfar in the 30th minute of play. Andrézinho Santos struck a weak shot in the 32nd minute. Mehdi Sallemi didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for CLUBISTIANO. In the 36th minute, Jaouhar Bouali hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. With his leg Mehdi Sallemi managed to avoid a goal in the 38thth minute, when CLUBISTIANO's Andrézinho Santos fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. When Andrézinho Santos came up free with the goalie in the 40th minute, the CLUBISTIANO 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 Andrézinho Santos couldn't finish the play. Eastfield's Mohieddine Khelil got a good chance for a goal in the 44th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. If Mohieddine Khelil had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 48th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-1 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Andrézinho Santos to make the kick off. After having played for 54 minutes, Adel Sfar managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Eastfield's supporters crossed their fingers, but Adel Sfar was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Aymen Missaoui struck a weak shot in the 58th minute. Mehdi Sallemi didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for CLUBISTIANO. Adel Sfar fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 66th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 69th minute, Adel Sfar managed to get in a good position for a shot. Eastfield's supporters rose to their feet, but Adel Sfar was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Mohieddine Khelil recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 71st minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. In the 75th minute, Najeh Essediri hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After a rather tough play, CLUBISTIANO's Najeh Essediri got a free kick in the 77th minute. 81 minutes into the match, Adel Sfar dribbled the ball past the defender and swiftly kicked the ball to the left of Zoubeir Sélim Haj Ali, 0-2. In the 89th match minute, Eastfield was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Ahmed Sellimi to maneuver through the defense. Andrézinho Santos took the ball and in the 91 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Mehdi Sallemi. Mehdi Sallemi dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-2. Eastfield's Mehdi Sallemi played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Andrézinho Santos in the 95th minute of play. The supporters of CLUBISTIANO booed when Eastfield was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 97 match minutes in a wonderful position. Slim Ben Souissi didn't get a good kick on the ball. When the referee blew the final whistle jeers and boos were heard from the home team's supporters. They were angered to see CLUBISTIANO lose a match they had controlled from the kick-off.
