Spectators: 8033 (Terracing: 6025, Seating: 1848, VIP seats: 160) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Tomasz Drebit made the kick off which started today's match. In the 3rd minute, Mourad Bloquet got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. In the 7th minute, Tomasz Drebit hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. A collision led to Lipa KS getting a freekick after 10 minutes play. Norbert Dejo hit a great ball. Lipa KS's Alfred Chazen played magnificently when he managed to stop the ball from hitting the goal, after a sharp shot by Joris Le Tiec in the 20th minute of play. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Joris Le Tiec during the 21st minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. With a little luck, Les Pionniers de Touraine's Dilan Mazoyer got control of the ball when Tomasz Drebit tried to sneak it across the goal line. If Tomasz Drebit had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 27th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Alfred Chazen made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Pierre-Henri Gaillot in the 30th minute of play. The supporters of Les Pionniers de Touraine booed when Lipa KS was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 34 match minutes in a wonderful position. Gilbert Gieraltowski didn't get a good kick on the ball. Tomasz Drebit sent away a hard shot on goal in the 38th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. Dilan Mazoyer showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Tomasz Drebit in the 42nd minute of the match. 44 minutes into the game, Leon Gardocki was given a yellow card after he appeared to trip an opposing player. Lipa KS's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave Les Pionniers de Touraine the free kick. Leon Gardocki hit a great freekick 44 minutes into the match. The score stood at 0-0 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

Both teams looked relatively alert before the second half when the referee blew his whistle to tell Pierre-Henri Gaillot to make the kick off. After some careless play in the Lipa KS defense, Pierre-Henri Gaillot kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Alfred Chazen. The Lipa KS fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Alfred Chazen should have stopped the shot. 60 minutes into the match, Leon Gardocki had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Dilan Mazoyer. Les Pionniers de Touraine's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Leon Gardocki was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1. Dilan Mazoyer took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Tomasz Drebit, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. The audience thought a goal was coming when Pierre-Henri Gaillot got free with Alfred Chazen in the 74th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Tomasz Drebit fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 77th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Dilan Mazoyer having to interfere. Dilan Mazoyer stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Tomasz Drebit's shot from short distance in the 80th minute. Pierre-Henri Gaillot took the ball and in the 81 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Alfred Chazen. Alfred Chazen dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-2. The crowd rose to their feet as Pierre-Henri Gaillot kicked a wonderful shot that went in to the left of a diving Alfred Chazen. That made the score 1-3 in the 95 minute of play.
