Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Nasserredine Bilal got the match started through his kick off. Mustapha Mehenni sent away a hard shot on goal in the 2nd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Noureddine Besseghir took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from René Bahari, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The audience thought a goal was coming when Mustapha Mehenni got free with Rabah Matmour in the 12th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Ismaël Belhagj's shot straight on target was not completely harmless. The ball had pretty good speed, but Rabah Matmour firmly grabbed it by the left post. After a defensive mix-up in Northwoods's zone, Nasserredine Bilal stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Noureddine Besseghir came out of the goal and Nasserredine Bilal tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. After 25 minutes of play, Northwoods's Ismaël Belhagj made it 1-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net.

Northwoods's Kateb Camus got a good chance for a goal in the 30th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar.

No-one was surprised that the home team were leading 2-0 at half-time.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Kateb Camus to make the kick off. Kateb Camus struck a weak shot in the 53rd minute. Rabah Matmour didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Northwoods. After 56 played minutes Northwoods got a freekick which was hit by Fawzi Kheyari. Rabah Matmour made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Mustapha Mehenni in the 58th minute of play. If Mustapha Mehenni had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 59th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 61 minutes into the match, 沖縄OTSレンタカー's goal looked a bit too open when Mustapha Mehenni came free, but Rabah Matmour reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
