After a defensive mix-up in LOTUS's zone, Ander Raidma stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Evren Serkut came out of the goal and Ander Raidma tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. The audience was convinced that Ander Raidma's extremely hard shot when he got free in front of the goal was going in, but Evren Serkut was relentless in the 62nd minute of the game. Ander Raidma was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 66th minute. Fluffy White Bunnies's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. 68 minutes into the game, Balaban Yürük cracked a shot to the right of the goalkeeper, 1-2. Egert Velberg was not in position, and could only watch the ball fly in. If Edvin Rannus had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 73rd minute.
