After 65 played minutes, Matii FC's Eriberto Gartzen shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Gavino Beturian came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Matii FC reached it. In the 66th minute Amador Selatse shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Bernabe Platon saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.
