Smolany's supporters crossed their fingers, but Julian Felenak was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. There were very few away supporters still in the ground by the end of the match. Most of them had left early, disgusted by the way their team had been torn apart. Smolany fully deserved thier win.
