Some fine movement on the left led to a Clitouristes goal after 63 minutes, making it 1 - 3. T. Blanchet was noted down as the scorer. S. Molinier wanted to play on, but the Clitouristes coach had other ideas, and he was replaced 65 minutes into the game by S. Antonioletti. As the captain was no longer on the pitch, S. Antonioletti took over the role of being the Clitouristes captain. After 70 minutes Clitouristes's A. Stark had to be carried off on a stretcher in agony. İ.

Steenhaut made way for R. Hubert. The bench was restless, and with 80 minutes passed gallet's coach gave M. Györki the opportunity the player had been hoping for. J. Tuts reluctantly left the field. The Clitouristes players could smell victory in the air. J. Sourd wasn't in a hurry to leave the field as he was substituted for D. Muscat after 80 minutes. L. Segaricci of gallet received a yellow card after 80 minutes for unsportsmanlike behaviour. After 81 minutes of game time, E. Peñalver had an excellent opportunity to add to the visitors' lead, clipping a volley hooked in from the right, but Ş. Dinescu was in the right place and tipped the ball over for a corner. Clitouristes claimed to have seen most of the ball, and the statistics agreed with them - possession being 53 percent.

The most dominating gallet player was without a doubt B. Beeck. R. Hubert was a disappointment, however. E. Peñalver performed admirably for Clitouristes. T. Blanchet turned in a dismal performance, however. The match ends 2 - 4.
