Spectators: 43 (Terracing: 33, Seating: 10, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Nickolai Nickerson made the kick off which started today's match. Gavino Ubarna made a fantastic save in the 3rd minute, when Nickolai Nickerson sent off a good shot on target. When Nickolai Nickerson came up free with the goalie in the 8th minute, the Étoile Sportive Du Sahel fans jumped to their feet. But the shot missed the goal by a fraction of an inch, and the fans sat back down disappointed that Nickolai Nickerson couldn't finish the play. 10 minutes into the match, Étoile Sportive Du Sahel's goal looked a bit too open when Semjon Čecura came free, but Eric Soned reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Nickolai Nickerson's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Gavino Ubarna read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 13th minute of play. An unexpectedly hard shot by Elvir Bešimović in the 14th minute of play forced Étoile Sportive Du Sahel's goalkeeper Eric Soned to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Nickolai Nickerson might have been able to make a better finish in the 16th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Gavino Ubarna. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Nickolai Nickerson ran back to his position shaking his head. After 17 played minutes Étoile Sportive Du Sahel got a freekick which was hit by Fabrício Rivarola. Eric Soned stood for a superb save when he managed to get hold of Joélson Laguna's shot from short distance in the 36th minute. In the 39th minute Branislav Cokić shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Eric Soned saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Eric Soned made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Joélson Laguna in the 44th minute of play. In the 46th minute, Elvir Bešimović left the goalkeeper for dead before tapping the ball into the right side of the net. The FISHBONE 06 fans were clearly happy with the effort and the scoreboard reflected the new score: 0-3. Even after changing tactics the home team jogged off the field with a 0-3 deficit. They would have to work harder if they wanted to turn things around in the second half.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Joélson Laguna stepped up to make the kick off in the second half. Eric Soned took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Joélson Laguna, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. 63 minutes in the game Ralph Meul did a throw-in, and the ball was quickly in game thanks to Guaberto Fernanco. Gavino Ubarna showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Vladimir Capixaba in the 68th minute of the match. 70 minutes into the match, FISHBONE 06's goal looked a bit too open when Nickolai Nickerson came free, but Gavino Ubarna reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Muamer Hamdić made in the 77th minute of the game a fairly good throw-in which was taken care of by Branislav Cokić. Étoile Sportive Du Sahel's Eric Soned proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 84th minute of the match, managed to save Étoile Sportive Du Sahel from getting a goal against them. Elvir Bešimović received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 86th minute. Eric Soned tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. FISHBONE 06's Kristijan Đurić was substituted for Branimir Bajrić. Gavino Ubarna made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Carlo Ancelotti in the 89th minute of play. 91 minutes into the match, Étoile Sportive Du Sahel's goalkeeper Eric Soned had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Elvir Bešimović.
