Spectators: 5000 (Terracing: 4000, Seating: 1000, VIP seats: 0) The field was rather wet after several days of rain when Hippolyte Risse took the kick off in the first half of the match. In the 4th minute Pierre-Loup Duperron shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Mamadou Métais saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. Calvin Avice scored 0-1 in the 8th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Mamadou Métais, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot. Barnabé Coquillat made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Matthieu Savelli in the 13th minute of play. When Hippolyte Risse fell near the penalty area in the 18th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored FC ROWEX's protests and gave Hippolyte Risse a yellow card for diving instead. After a rather tough play, FC ROWEX's Hippolyte Risse got a free kick in the 18th minute. Barnabé Coquillat showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Matthieu Savelli in the 20th minute of the match. If Calvin Avice had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 22nd minute. The ball went over the crossbar instead. After a rather tough play, FC ROWEX's Franz Cathelin got a free kick in the 25th minute. After having played for 26 minutes, Teddy Reiss managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. FC Pitron's supporters crossed their fingers, but Teddy Reiss was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. The supporters of FC Pitron booed when FC ROWEX was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 33 match minutes in a wonderful position. Jean-Marc Cornec didn't get a good kick on the ball. Barnabé Coquillat made a fantastic save in the 36th minute, when Teddy Reiss sent off a good shot on target. Barnabé Coquillat showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Matthieu Savelli, who was totally free with the ball in the 40th minute.

When the second half was about to start, both teams quickly lined up and Matthieu Savelli made a kick off. Barnabé Coquillat made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Teddy Reiss in the 52nd minute of play. Mamadou Métais made a fantastic save in the 54th minute, when Pierre-Loup Duperron sent off a good shot on target. Barnabé Coquillat took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Matthieu Savelli, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. An unexpectedly hard shot by Matthieu Savelli in the 59th minute of play forced FC ROWEX's goalkeeper Barnabé Coquillat to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. Hippolyte Risse might have been able to make a better finish in the 60th minute when he tried to place a hard shot over Mamadou Métais. Instead the ball went over the crossbar and out. Hippolyte Risse ran back to his position shaking his head. Pierre-Loup Duperron came free with the goalkeeper in the 63rd minute of the match, and shot straight on target. The shot was a little too simple and Mamadou Métais could save by the left post. In the 64th minute, Salomon Vinatier hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The corner went over the outstretched arms of FC Pitron's goalie and right to Franz Cathelin. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. FC Pitron's manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. Barnabé Coquillat came out of the goal in the 73rd minute to try and stop a shot by FC Pitron's Teddy Reiss. But to his dismay, Teddy Reiss quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-1. The referee gave FC Pitron a penalty, 79 minutes into the game. The penalty shot was made by Sam Limare, who made a well placed shot into the net to the right of FC ROWEX's Barnabé Coquillat. 2-1. 82 minutes into the match, FC ROWEX's goal looked a bit too open when Matthieu Savelli came free, but Barnabé Coquillat reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 83rd minute, Teddy Reiss hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. Pierre-Loup Duperron struck a weak shot in the 85th minute. Mamadou Métais didn't even have to move as the ball rolled over the line well wide of the goal. A wasted opportunity for FC ROWEX. In the 88th minute, Fabrice Hingant hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. After a defensive mix-up in FC ROWEX's zone, Teddy Reiss stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Barnabé Coquillat came out of the goal and Teddy Reiss tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. When Matthieu Savelli came up free with the goalie in the 92nd minute, the FC Pitron 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 Matthieu Savelli couldn't finish the play. 92 minutes into the match, Matthieu Savelli had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of Barnabé Coquillat. FC ROWEX's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Matthieu Savelli was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-1. FC Pitron walked away with a well-earned victory that was much celebrated by the crowd.
