Syria closed in. Omar Khrbin received the ball near the box after the opposing defense failed to clear it in a previous play and, without hesitation, took a shot aiming for the right corner of the goal, but the ball went wide, over the crossbar.
A yellow card is shown in the match. The referee decides to caution Michael Termanini of Palestine for a foul on Omar Khrbin as he was running to receive a long pass behind the defense. He is the first player to be cautioned.
