Nicolas Duardo took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Pablo Gartzen, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side. In the 82nd minute, Victor Gelacio fired away a shot on goal. He put a little to much spin on the ball and sent it just wide of the right post. In the 85th minute, Club atletico Ciclon's goalie took a deep sigh of relief after Victor Gelacio fired away a hard shot that went just outside the left post. After a defensive mix-up in Club atletico Ciclon's zone, Harnis Jelen stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Flavio Itzaina came out of the goal and Harnis Jelen tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Stryker were disappointed that they only managed a draw, even though they felt themselves to be the better team.
