Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Nasserredine Drioueche made the kick off which started today's match. Fergani Soltani took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Nasserredine Drioueche, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Fergani Soltani showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Nasserredine Drioueche in the 6th minute of the match. Nouredine Boufroura might have been able to make a better finish in the 8th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Benamar Mehenni. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Nouredine Boufroura ran back to his position shaking his head. With a couple of smart ball manuevers Khalida Khelaifia in the 11th managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Benamar Mehenni saved Monte Sereno FC from getting behind. In the 17th match minute, Vineland AFC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Khalida Khelaifia to maneuver through the defense. Nasserredine Drioueche received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 18th minute. Fergani Soltani tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. An unexpectedly hard shot by Mohamed Medjoudj in the 20th minute of play forced Vineland AFC's goalkeeper Fergani Soltani to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Khalida Khelaifia had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 26th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. In the 29th match minute, Vineland AFC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Noureddine Benflis to maneuver through the defense. Ahmed Hamdani kicked well hit freekick during the 31st minute of the match. After having played for 42 minutes, Khalida Khelaifia managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Vineland AFC's supporters crossed their fingers, but Khalida Khelaifia was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. Ahmed Reda Horr recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 47th minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 1-0 at half-time.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Khalida Khelaifia stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Benamar Mehenni took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Khalida Khelaifia, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. If Khalida Khelaifia had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 58th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 60 minutes into the match, Monte Sereno FC's goal looked a bit too open when Ahmed Reda Horr came free, but Benamar Mehenni reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Khalida Khelaifia scored 2-0 in the 66th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Benamar Mehenni, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Ahmed Hamdani kicked well hit freekick during the 70th minute of the match. Noureddine Benflis kicked well hit freekick during the 77th minute of the match. In the 86th minute, Mohamed Moussa hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After a rather tough play, Monte Sereno FC's Leon Cherrad got a free kick in the 88th minute.
