Ahmed Yahia received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 3rd minute. Karim Boniche tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Safy Cavalli fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 5th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Karim Boniche having to interfere. In the 9th match minute, Brenham was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Jean Laref to maneuver through the defense. Safy Cavalli might have been able to make a better finish in the 19th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Karim Boniche. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Safy Cavalli ran back to his position shaking his head. In the 21st minute of the match Khair ad-Din Hindi sent off a long shot with destination to the right of the goalkeeper, but Karim Boniche skillfully saved the ball. Karim Boniche acted impressively in front of the goal and made a superb save when he, in the 26th minute, took the ball on the long shot from Khair ad-Din Hindi. In the 28th minute Ahmed Yahia shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Karim Boniche saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 0-1 became the score in the 32nd minute when Knodi Toumi elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar. Knodi Malek fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 40th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Rachid Saïfi having to interfere. Brenham's Rachid Saïfi played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Knodi Toumi in the 42nd minute of play. Knodi Toumi scored 0-2 in the 46th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Rachid Saïfi, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Luck had favoured the away team in the first, and they walked off with a 0-2 lead.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Ahmed Yahia made a kick off. Knodi Malek struck a weak shot in the 61st minute. Rachid Saïfi didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Lillington FC. Knodi Malek sent away a hard shot on goal in the 63rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Souad Ziani took a chance and fired a shot far from the goal in the 74th minute, but it turned out to be a dangerous situation for Karim Boniche. Lillington FC's goalkeeper really had to stretch himself to stop the ball from crossing the goal line. When Brenham's Ahmed Yahia in the 82nd minute got a chance for a shot 82nd didn't hesitate and placed the ball to the right of the goalie. A beautiful save bye Lillington FC's goalie prevented a goal. Lillington FC's Knodi Malek got a good chance for a goal in the 85th minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. After some careless play in the Brenham defense, Knodi Toumi kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Rachid Saïfi. The Brenham fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Rachid Saïfi should have stopped the shot. If Ahmed Yahia had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 90th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Knodi Malek received a nice pass, split the defenders, and ran untouched towards the goal. Rachid Saïfi came out and tried to block the shot, but Knodi Malek slotted it home off the left post making it 1-4 in the 93rd minute. Karim Boniche took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Safy Cavalli, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The Lillington FC players were relieved to hear the final whistle blow to end the match. The away crowd was happy to see their team win after a very tight game.
