The first period was notable for some very good defensive interventions. Santiago looked all set to score but Emma put in a great block. At the other end, Valerio made a great save from a Mattia shot and then, back at the other end, an in-form Atena was foiled at the last minute by Maya. Santiago blasted a shot at Theo but the Norwegian international goalkeeper saved it. He was helpless shortly afterwards though when Atena found Santiago and his shot found the back of the net.
Santiago almost scored a second early in period 2 when he beat three players on the right wing and shot just past the left post. Dylan shot wide too but Mattia made no mistake when he turned inside from the left and shot the equaliser.
As period 3 got underway, Dylan turned awkwardly in the box and handled to give away a penalty. Everyone held their breath as Santiago prepared to kick it and the stadium then exploded when Seb made a fantastic save! 8S came straight back into attack; Carolina played in a good cross but Lorenzo arrived late. Then 8S won a corner and, from Lorenzo's kick, Nikos timed his run perfectly to plant a header past the goalkeeper. But, as so often happens, the team in front lost their concentration and Pedro equalised with a header from a Santiago throw-in.
