Lemieux AFC's Beau Harden became a little unsure and couldn't grip the ball before it was over the goalline. Thus it was 0-1. When Jarrod Kendall came up free with the goalie in the 6th minute, the Chimo 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 Jarrod Kendall couldn't finish the play. Brian Gaillou kicked well hit freekick during the 19th minute of the match. After 23 played minutes Lemieux AFC got a freekick which was hit by Ralph Lay.

Jed Hargrove scored 1-1 in the 45th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Francis Riquier, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.

The wind increased when Baudouin Short made the kick off in the second half. After a rather tough play, Lemieux AFC's Joël Parsons got a free kick in the 55th minute.

If Jarrod Kendall had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 76th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Baudouin Short was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 81st minute.
