After having played for 70 minutes, Jacinto Duarte managed to get in a good position for a shot on goal. Desportivo Lucca MZ's supporters crossed their fingers, but Jacinto Duarte was, after a quick turn that froze the defenders, out of balance and shot the ball just to the right of the goal. 72 minutes into the match, Michel de Brito had an open shot that he just couldn't miss and scored to the right of 韩朋奕. 【FLY】黄岩本地早's manager could be seen yelling to the referee that Michel de Brito was offside, but the referee ignored the protest. 3-2. 77 minutes into the match, Desportivo Lucca MZ's goal looked a bit too open when 楚迅辉 came free, but Marcelinho Cruz reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.

Marcelinho Cruz made a valiant effort, but he could not reach the ball in time, 4-3. 韩朋奕 took care of the ball after a well-directed shot from Jacinto Duarte, even though the ball almost passed him on his left side.
