7V were leading 1-0 and 8T had one foot out of the competition when Nicholas, with an open goal in front of him, somehow managed to hit the post instead of the back of the net.
In the second half, Zeno replaced Octavio in goal and made a couple of fine saves. 8T then found themselves a man down, Jacopo sent off for a handball that might have denied the winner to 7V but Noah G's free kick was blocked. Finally, Riccardo saved his team again, as he had done in round 1, scoring a goal that sent the tie to a penalty shoot-out.
It was a case of going from Hero to Villain for Nicholas. Having scored his side's goal early in the second half and having played a good game throughout, his miss turned out to be crucial.
8T thought they had equalised before half time, but Referee's assistant Calento spotted a foul on Octavio as Ludovico shot home.
Guerrino, after having played an excellent match, saw his penalty fly high over the bar and it is 8T who will face 6M on Wednesday.missed a great chance to eliminate.
