After a defensive mix-up in otalape's zone, Cristoforo Taraborrelli stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat.

Cristoforo Taraborrelli received a nice pass in the box and took a hard shot in the 35th minute. Aurelio Di Francesco tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.

Frank Ferretti recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 52nd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. Ercole Furia fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 59th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Dino Di Michele having to interfere. In the 67th minute the ball was on its way in behind otalape's goalkeeper Aurelio Di Francesco, but with the help of a sacrificing defense, he could catch the ball at the crossbar. Aurelio Di Francesco made a wonderful reflex save on a shot from Cristoforo Taraborrelli in the 69th minute of play.
