• Veloria leveled the teams in the 74th minute, getting his right foot on a cross and slipping a shot inside the right post from deep in the box.
• Hendrie nearly put the hosts back in front in the 86th minute but slipped a shot just outside the left post.
• With only 37 seconds remaining in the contest, Cagno finished a near carbon copy of Veloria's goal, getting a slight touch with his right foot and finding space inside the right post from out front.
