Spectators: 6708 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1708, VIP seats: 0) The sun was shining, the grass was green and the audience cheered when Jean-Michel Feraoun got the match started through his kick off. 3 minutes into the game, Abdelaziz Rahouli was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Grand Island AFC's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Clover Hill FC the free kick. Grand Island AFC's Jean-Michel Abdenouz proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 5th minute of the match, managed to save Grand Island AFC from getting a goal against them. Grand Island AFC's Jean-Michel Abdenouz played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Jean-Michel Feraoun in the 9th minute of play.

Abdelaziz Rahouli hit a great freekick 11 minutes into the match. When the match had gone on for 12 minutes, Smail Kensi put it in 1-0 from a short distance just to the right of Jean-Michel Abdenouz.

Benamar Fillali sent away a hard shot on goal in the 23rd minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Benamar Fillali's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Souad Arrache read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 24th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Jean-Michel Feraoun in the 28th minute of play forced Grand Island AFC's goalkeeper Jean-Michel Abdenouz to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Jean-Michel Feraoun received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 39th minute.

In the 41st minute, one of Grand Island AFC:s players had the ball in front of the goal but got pushed and fell. The referee felt it was an obvious case and blew a penalty for Grand Island AFC. The goalkeeper, Jean-Michel Abdenouz, was totally fooled by Clover Hill FC's Charles Souakri, who 43 minutes into the game made a penalty shot that went in on the goalkeeper's left side. If Jean-Michel Feraoun had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 47th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The away team players looked dejected as the walked off the pitch at half time. They had fought hard, but were still losing 3-0.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Benamar Fillali made a kick off. After 56 minutes of play, Clover Hill FC's Jean-Michel Feraoun made it 4-0 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Jean-Michel Abdenouz was left in no man's land by his defense there! Lakhdar Soltani's late challenge caught a Clover Hill FC's player on the shin and left him crawling around in pain. The referee blew his whistle and produced the yellow card. Lakhdar Soltani helped the player get up and apologised. In the 63rd minute Smail Kensi shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Jean-Michel Abdenouz saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Smail Kensi received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 64th minute. Jean-Michel Abdenouz tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. Benamar Fillali received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 76th minute. Souad Arrache tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 78th minute, Hamid Bouteflika managed to get in a good position for a shot. Grand Island AFC's supporters rose to their feet, but Hamid Bouteflika was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Souad Arrache breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. 4-1 became the score in the 91st minute when Benamar Fillali elegantly shot the ball into goal just under the crossbar.
