Nejmeh took the lead in the 9th minute through Collins Opare after an early spell of attacking pressure. The team doubled its advantage in the 26th minute when Rabih Ataya scored to extend the lead. Ansar reduced the deficit in the 36th minute via Ali Tneich, bringing the score to 2–1 and briefly re-establishing competitive balance. However, Nejmeh restored its two-goal advantage shortly before half-time, with Collins scoring again in first-half stoppage time (45+7) to complete his brace and make it 3–1.[2]

No further goals were scored in the second half. Ansar applied offensive pressure early after the interval, including a disallowed goal, while Nejmeh maintained defensive organisation and managed the remainder of the match without significant threat. The scoreline remained unchanged until the final whistle.[2]
