Spectators: 159 (Terracing: 120, Seating: 36, VIP seats: 3) Спартак's Ruslan Filonchikov managed, thanks to a brazen rush, stole the ball on a throw-in made by Endel Uudevald in the 5 minute of the game.

A wasted opportunity for Leicester Foxes Academy. 16 minutes had been played when some careless play by Спартак's defense caused the ball to cross the line for a corner. Niles Andrews was slow to take the kick. During this time Leicester Foxes Academy's players had a chance to rest.
