Ermir Demaci was really disappointed when he shot the ball just outside the right post instead of scoring a goal in the 10th minute. Polonia Division's manager could be seen on the sidelines shaking his head and muttering to himself as his team had just wasted another chance. In the 12th minute, Nezir Bajrami got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. An unexpectedly hard shot by Pancho Leceta in the 17th minute of play forced Polonia Division's goalkeeper Menti Progo to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball.
