91' - Akram gets into the box and lays it up for Watson to his left who takes a shot but it deflects onto the path of Faiaz but the youngster is unable to bury it.
88' - CHANCE!! A good move on the right flank as Chullova puts in a low cross into the box and Dudu manages to head it but it goes just inches wide...If that would have gone in, we'd have exciting last minutes of the match.
86' - Cameron Watson lays a ball nicely for Nikhil Kadam, who takes his time and crosses in for Moghrabi who takes the header but goes just wide off the goal.
