Cassis-Carnoux13 used their ability to concentrate their attacks in the middle of the pitch, rather than on the wings. Cassis-Carnoux13 had a chance to take the lead after M. Mörtl's dazzling drive up the left, but the opportunity fizzled out as his shot went just over the bar after 27 minutes. It was 0 - 0 at the break. Possession in this half belonged to Cassis-Carnoux13, who controlled the ball 56 percent of the time.

Cassis-Carnoux13's M. Ditmar was shown a yellow card after 47 minutes for slicing down an opponent. FALLA were forced into a substitution as J. Søltoft couldn't continue due to some rough treatment, forcing S. Tincopa to come in off the bench. M. Ditmar would have preferred to play on, but his coach decided otherwise. T. Bousquet entered the game for Cassis-Carnoux13 as the match clock showed 55 minutes. A. Truc was the new captain of Cassis-Carnoux13 - handed the armband by the departing player. Cassis-Carnoux13 were very close to putting themselves one up after 59 minutes as K. Hajdu got through on the left, but failing in concentration, he shot the ball wide. 60 minutes into the game, Cassis-Carnoux13 wanted to bring some new energy to their game. R. Pintér gave A. El Bekri a quick hug as he left the field. The visitors' central defence should have had no trouble clearing the pass to A. El Bekri, but the Cassis-Carnoux13 player managed to shrug them off and fired a low shot past the keeper to give his team the lead. 1 - 0! After 61 minutes, the visitors tied it up at 1 - 1 when a fantastic pass from the left was finished off by H. Andersen. With 63 minutes played, I. Cafagna of FALLA fell dramatically just outside the penalty area. However, the referee was unimpressed, and booked him for diving. Down the middle came H. Andersen, making a fantastic play that nearly had FALLA take the lead after 68 minutes, but K. Kallas preserved the tie. 70 minutes into the match, the referee signalled for a Cassis-Carnoux13 substitution. S. Massardier came on for J. Mize. A. Sukki of Cassis-Carnoux13 received a yellow card after 73 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. 77 minutes into the match, the FALLA manager wanted to try a new tactic, and the players loyally obliged. After 78 minutes, the FALLA coach had a quick word about the tactical set-up and decided to try another approach. Priding himself in being an active coach, the FALLA manager gave new instructions to his players after 80 minutes. Cassis-Carnoux13 enjoyed most of the ball, as they maintained 58 percent of possession.

The most dominating Cassis-Carnoux13 player was without a doubt S. Massardier. T. Moineau turned in a dismal performance, however. D. Jokanović performed admirably for FALLA. However, S. Tincopa made a disastrous appearance. The match ends 1 - 1.
