Nevertheless, referee Jordan awarded Rosario a penalty after Mazzulo touched the ball with his hand. Wells scored to tie the match, 3–3. That was the final result on 90 minutes so an extra time was played to determine the champion.

After that play, Stocks ran carrying the ball and after dribbling some adversaries, shot it to CURCC's goal. The ball hit the underside of the crossbar, bouncing down toward the line and was throwed out by Carbone.
