Match Report: “Blood and Gold” Dominate Capbon in a Convincing Victory

Source: La Presse – The “Blood and Gold” (CA) were relentless against their Capbon hosts, handing them a heavy defeat in the postponed match that counted for the 19th round of the league.


First Half

  • Kick‑off: The visitors set the tone early, adopting an attacking style.
  • 3’Boualia (CA) fires a free‑kick from the edge of the 16‑meter box that rattles the left post of Ben Cherifia (Capbon).
  • 11’Mannoubi Haddad (Capbon) breaks through, shoots, and is blocked by Ben Saïd. This is the only Capbon attempt of the first half.

Turning Point

  • 15’Moez Hadj Ali (CA) scores from a direct free‑kick, with Florian Danho slotting the rebound into Ben Cherifia’s net. The Ivorian forward finally finds the back of the net.
  • 30’ – A precise cross from Nidhal Laifi finds Kouceila Boualia, whose powerful strike beats Ben Cherifia again.

Penalty Drama

  • 45’ – At the end of the half, Florian Danho is fouled by Firas Amri, earning a penalty. Mohamed Amine Ben Hamida converts, extending the lead.

Score at halftime: CA 3 – 0 Capbon


Second Half

  • Substitutions (halftime): Capbon’s coach swaps striker Ahmed Bouassida for Dhiaeddine Jebali, aiming to boost the attack.

  • 59’ – After a duel with Nidhal Laifi, Houssem Touati (Capbon) is brought down in the box. VAR confirms the penalty, but Jasser Khemiri blasts it against the right post, missing the chance to get on the scoresheet.

  • The game then settles into a quieter rhythm, with scattered attempts from both sides but no clear danger.

Final Outcome

The “Blood and Gold” proved too strong for their hosts, securing a comprehensive win that propels them into a positive run. For Soliman’s side, the red‑shirted team, the situation grows more complicated.
