After a defensive mix-up in Vladimirovo's zone, Destan Lozanov stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Erkand Imeri came out of the goal and Destan Lozanov tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Erkand Imeri showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Destan Nastevski, who was totally free with the ball in the 45th minute.

The players of the away team seemed most concentrated when Destan Lozanov stepped up to make the kick off in the second half.

Vladimirovo's Erkand Imeri tried to save the shot but he was too slow in reacting to the shot. Destan Nastevski's shot when he came free in front of the goal in the 59thth minute, Erkand Imeri skillfully showed off with a save to what seemed to be an obvious goal.

Destan Lozanov ran back to his position shaking his head.
