Spectators: 6731 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1731, VIP seats: 0) It was fairly windy and cold on the field when Zine Ayari kicked off to start the match. If Abdelwahab Brahem had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 5th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Ali El Ouaer took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Zine Ayari, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. After a rather tough play, Berkhamsted City's Michel Sellimi got a free kick in the 16th minute. In the 19th minute, Abdelwahab Brahem left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The Beckton fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 2-0. Ibrahim Melliti struck a weak shot in the 22nd minute. Achref Chedli didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Berkhamsted City. An unexpectedly hard shot by Ali Jaber in the 35th minute of play forced Beckton's goalkeeper Achref Chedli to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. After some fancy dribbling in the 42nd minute, Ibrahim Melliti managed to get in a good position for a shot. Berkhamsted City's supporters rose to their feet, but Ibrahim Melliti was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Achref Chedli breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. After 43 played minutes Beckton got a freekick which was hit by Hedi Mkacher. Achref Chedli didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Dhaker Diwa went, in the 45th minute, to the upper right corner, 2-1 was the resulting score. The home fans were very happy to see their team leading 2-1 at half-time.

Ali Jaber could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 54th minute of the match, but Achref Chedli made a huge save. Zine Ayari received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 66th minute. Ali El Ouaer tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. If Abdelwahab Brahem had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 69th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Ali El Ouaer stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Zine Ayari's shot from short distance in the 75th minute.

Berkhamsted City's Dhaker Diwa got a good chance for a goal in the 87th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar.
