In the 55th minute, Logan Kayrooz hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. The long shot by 曲棋耀 in the 55th minute really tested Artie Mccarthy's skills.

After having played for 66 minutes, Rick Kile managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. AUSTRAL BOWLING CLUB's supporters crossed their fingers, but Rick Kile was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. After some careless play in the AUSTRAL BOWLING CLUB defense, 陆岚帆 kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Artie Mccarthy. The AUSTRAL BOWLING CLUB fans voiced their displeasure as they felt that Artie Mccarthy should have stopped the shot.
