Faizal Mathews ran back to his position shaking his head. An unexpectedly hard shot by Faizal Mathews in the 81st minute of play forced 深圳银湖俱乐部's goalkeeper 孙杰鹰 to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. 张朋康 fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 83rd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Sait Gündeş having to interfere.
