Sont entrés en jeu : Fourcade, Gabriel Robez, Benoit, Dubuy, Taponard, Balconnet, Contardo. Carton jaune : Guidot (59e ) et Beqa (84e ). Les Messins, intransigeants en défense et omniprésents en attaque, ont maté le quinze jurassien. Et pourtant c’est Lons-le-Saunier qui a lancé les hostilités : Raoma a récupéré un long ballon donné au pied à un mètre de la ligne, mais au moment d'aplatir, a commis une faute de main. Secoués, les Messins. Mais sur une touche de Bivert, le ballon a voyagé entre les lignes pour parvenir à Kimmel, qui leur a offert les premiers points. Perrin a transformé pour le RC en tête (7-0). Neiceru manque deux pénalités faciles Meynier, pour Lons,a répondu en s’échappant pour servir Neiceru.
