If 沈超响 had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 84th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. After having played for 92 minutes, 范渊竞 managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. 上海浦东剑羚联队's supporters crossed their fingers, but 范渊竞 was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 李寒西's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but 严夕明 read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 97th minute of play. 上海浦东剑羚联队's supporters were highly satisfied with the result.
