Spectators: 7479 (Terracing: 5611, Seating: 1719, VIP seats: 149) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Wawrzyniec Kochowski took the kick off in the first half of the match. Esteve Lon showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Wawrzyniec Kochowski in the 3rd minute of the match. The audience thought a goal was coming when Lenny Leccia got free with Esteve Lon in the 5th minute, but the goalkeeper managed to catch the ball with a huge effort. Esteve Lon was in the perfect position, and the defense had done a good job marking him, but Wawrzyniec Kochowski showcased his skills and made a perfect shot to score 1-0 in the 12 minute of play. In the 17th minute Lenny Leccia shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Esteve Lon saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Wawrzyniec Kochowski scored 2-0 in the 18th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Esteve Lon, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Esteve Lon made an important save on a dangerous shot by Nathanaël Lecluse in the 23rd minute. Mipul™'s Esteve Lon proved his good apprehension of play when he, in the 27th minute of the match, managed to save Mipul™ from getting a goal against them.

In the 35th minute, Lenny Leccia fired away a killer shot towards the goal that, to the delight of Esteve Lon, passed just outside the right post. After a rather tough play, Mipul™'s Fausto Selmo got a free kick in the 35th minute. When Lenny Leccia fell near the penalty area in the 39th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Valette Stars's protests and gave Lenny Leccia a yellow card for diving instead. After a rather tough play, Valette Stars's Lenny Leccia got a free kick in the 39th minute. In the 44th minute Lisandro Frederico shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Geoffroy Pernin saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Lisandro Frederico made a kick off. The supporters of Mipul™ booed when Valette Stars was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 51 match minutes in a wonderful position. Éluard Ehrhart didn't get a good kick on the ball. Theo Chassot lost his temper 54 minutes into the game and shoved another player to the ground. He was immediately shown a red card. After 54 minutes of play, the referee blew the whistle. It was a penalty for Valette Stars! 3-1 came in the 57th minute when Lisandro Frederico all by himself managed to get straight through the defense and place the ball into the net to the right of Geoffroy Pernin. After some careless play in the Mipul™ defense, Lenny Leccia kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Esteve Lon. The Mipul™ fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Esteve Lon should have stopped the shot. Valette Stars made a substitution. Émilien Gentilhomme replaced Nathanaël Lecluse. Émilien Gentilhomme might have been able to make a better finish in the 81st minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Esteve Lon. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Émilien Gentilhomme ran back to his position shaking his head. Émilien Gentilhomme took the ball and in the 83 minute, shot a rapid shot to the right of a surprised Esteve Lon. Esteve Lon dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 5-1. Esteve Lon didn't have a chance when a screaming shot from Lenny Leccia went, in the 87th minute, to the upper right corner, 6-1 was the resulting score. A collision led to Valette Stars getting a freekick after 91 minutes play. Lenny Leccia hit a great ball. After 93 minutes of play, Valette Stars's Émilien Gentilhomme made it 7-1 when he simply outclassed the defender marking him and hit a curling shot into the right side of the net. Esteve Lon was left in no man's land by his defense there! The referee blew his whistle, and the match came to a close. The players exchanged shirts and headed down the tunnel. The Valette Stars fans cheered their team off the field, for while Mipul™ had put up a good fight, they were unable to come out of the game with any points to show for their effort.
