Benzecry Butman showed his good apprehension of the play when he made a fantastic save on a shot from Egídio Lucas, who was totally free with the ball in the 76th minute.

Icoara Football Club's Fabrício Rosa got a good chance for a goal in the 82nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. In the 86th minute Chuttur Lønge shot on, it seemed, an open goal, but Caetano Monteiro saw the ball coming and threw himself on it before it passed the goal line. When Raz Factor fell near the penalty area in the 87th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Maccabi Netanya's protests and gave Raz Factor a yellow card for diving instead. In the 87th minute, Raz Factor hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. With a little luck, Icoara Football Club's Caetano Monteiro got control of the ball when Chuttur Lønge tried to sneak it across the goal line. Caetano Monteiro took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Maoz Arkin, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.
