A wasted opportunity for Zollers. 71 minutes into the match, Zollers's goal looked a bit too open when Nader Al Saleh came free, but Khalel Al Bana reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. In the 74th minute Nader Al Saleh shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Khalel Al Bana saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line.
