The wind increased when Navid Karimi made the kick off in the second half. Navid Shahbazi took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Rostam Asgharzadeh, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. When Massoud Ghanoun fell near the penalty area in the 56th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Stockwell's protests and gave Massoud Ghanoun a yellow card for diving instead.
