Bane Pandev dived to the right, and did manage to get a hand on the shot, but it still went into the right corner making it 1-2. 44 minutes into the match, Fc Pilaveci's goal looked a bit too open when Goran Leontievski came free, but Bane Pandev reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

In the 76thth minute of the game Branko Jovčevski who was perfectly placed tried to make a shot on goal, but Fc Pilaveci's Bane Pandev was lucky and managed to grab hold of the ball. In the 79th minute, Sima Šiškovski ran past the defenders and hit a shot which went straight ahead into goal. Diljan Siljanoski was frozen by the shot and now it was 2-2.
