Three minutes later, the players of Lokomotiv were surprisingly the first to score. The goal was scored by Gonzalo Cardoso, who masterfully headed Federico Rubio.
The home team tried to respond in a flash with a shot from distance by Mario Kikonda, but Aleksandar Ljubenov managed to do it with difficulty.
In the 58th minute, Daniel Genov sent a pass into the penalty area, but Brian Perea could not find his way and the ball went out.
In the 60th minute, Bruno Franco raced past Luis Soares and crossed on the ground to Antoni Ivanov, who easily put the ball into Federico Rubio’s net.
