The corner went over the outstretched arms of Jastreb's goalie and right to Friderik Burgar. He fired away a shot at goal, but the shot had too much spin, and it went just outside the goal. Jastreb's manager breathed a sigh of relief on the sidelines as his team had managed to escape an almost certain goal. Bojan Predan recieved an excellent pass in front of the goal in the 10th minute.
