When Ennu Veskis, who was free, got the in front of the goal in the 5 minute he wasn't focused and tipped the ball just over the goal.

After 53 played minutes, Iigaste's Janis Tilk shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Viljar Lüüs came through and got his fingers on the ball before it flew over the goal line. He then quickly gripped the ball tighter before the forwards in Iigaste reached it. If Ennu Veskis had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 54th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. Viljar Lüüs showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Ennu Veskis, who was totally free with the ball in the 57th minute.

When Väino Ojasaar came up free with the goalie in the 77th minute, the Rabivere fans jumped to their feet.

Priidu Tomson hit a great freekick 83 minutes into the match. In the 84th minute of the match Ralf Nõmmik shot from a long distance. The ball could have gone into the goal to the right of the goalkeeper, but Viljar Lüüs showed his good shape when he easily got hold of the ball. 85 minutes into the match, Rabivere's goal looked a bit too open when Ennu Veskis came free, but Viljar Lüüs reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
