Metsalouka FC's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Erni Uustalo was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 1-0. After 6 minutes, Evert Lille mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the Metsalouka FC and the Kopli Uroodid players grew even worse after the yellow card.
