After some fancy dribbling in the 4th minute, Wictor Vinström managed to get in a good position for a shot. Cyber EVO's supporters rose to their feet, but Wictor Vinström was a bit off balance and shot the ball just wide of the left post. Ferdinand Chandler breathed a sigh of relief and went to take the goal kick.
