After having played for 4 minutes, Sören Klemensson managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. AC Milan's supporters crossed their fingers, but Sören Klemensson was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal.

With a couple of smart ball manuevers Per Åberg in the 92nd managed to get into a good position. With a left leg Jacobo Nores saved Paraguay from getting behind. Alan Campos charged in rather forcefully in the 93rd minute of the match, and managed to knock his opponent down. The referee showed Alan Campos the yellow card, and asked the players to shake hands before continuing play. The supporters of AC Milan booed when Paraguay was adjudged a doubtful freekick after 93 match minutes in a wonderful position. Alan Campos didn't get a good kick on the ball. If Sören Klemensson had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 95th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. The AC Milan support was delighted with a win in a match that could easily have ended differently.
