After 24 played minutes, Žarkovo's Žarko Radonjić shot from a long distance, and at first it looked like the ball was going into the goal, but the goalkeeper Radislav Jovićević 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 Žarkovo reached it.

Žarkovo's manager was livid on the sidelines, but the referee was unmoved and gave DORCOL UNITED the free kick. Cvetin Rakonjac recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 43rd minute. Unfortunately, he received the ball on his off foot and could only manage a weak shot that went over the goal. The score stood at 1-1 when the half time whistle went. Both sets of players seemed reasonably pleased with how the match was going.

The players of the home team were most fresh-looking when they entered the field to play the second half. Dragan Smiljanić was the one to do the kick off. After a defensive mix-up in DORCOL UNITED's zone, Cvetin Rakonjac stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Radislav Jovićević came out of the goal and Cvetin Rakonjac tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Cvetin Rakonjac sent away a hard shot on goal in the 57th minute, but the ball hit the crossbar and went out. A very good chance for a goal.

But to his dismay, Dragan Bradić quickly shot the ball in between his legs and into the goal making it 1-2. After having played for 68 minutes, Danilo Babović managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal.

Dragan Bradić sent away a hard shot on goal in the 70th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

When Dragan Smiljanić came up free with the goalie in the 75th minute, the DORCOL UNITED fans jumped to their feet.

Danilo Babović scored 2-2 in the 85th match minute with a shot that went into the goal to the right of Luka Koleski, who was just a little too slow in reacting to the shot.
