Spectators: 6841 (Terracing: 5000, Seating: 1841, VIP seats: 0) Basil Moran started the match with the kick off in front of an excited audience. Roy McCollion struck a weak shot in the 6th minute. Quinton Lavine didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for Drom Utd. In the 10th match minute, Drom Utd was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Beary McGlenn to maneuver through the defense. The audience was convinced that Basil Moran's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Coran Doyle was relentless in the 11th minute of the game. After a rather tough play, Courthoyle's Birr McDonald got a free kick in the 15th minute. After some fancy dribbling in the 27th minute, Ros McDecland managed to get in a good position for a shot. Drom Utd's supporters rose to their feet, but Ros McDecland was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Quinton Lavine breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Birr McDonald charged in rather forcefully in the 32nd minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Birr McDonald the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. Birr McDonald hit a great freekick 32 minutes into the match. In the 34th minute Ros McDecland shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Quinton Lavine saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. 36 minutes into the match, Roy McCollion had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Quinton Lavine. Courthoyle's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Roy McCollion was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-1. After 43 played minutes Courthoyle got a freekick which was hit by Basil Moran. After fighting hard for a draw in the first half, the players were able to take a much needed rest.

Basil Moran received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 55th minute. Coran Doyle tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After some fancy dribbling in the 62nd minute, Basil Moran managed to get in a good position for a shot. Courthoyle's supporters rose to their feet, but Basil Moran was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Coran Doyle breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick. Quinton Lavine took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Ros McDecland, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. Trien Martyn sent away a hard shot on goal in the 80th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.
