From the first minutes the hosts began to attack. Bakay had a good shot on the first minute, but the ball went over the crossbar. On the 8th minute the hosts took the lead. Lorenzo Riera was better in the air and headed the ball to Rinar Valeev who had a good powerful shot on goal. Sheriff answered with a long shot by Kadu. In the middle of the first half Chernomorets doubled the lead. Riera went through the left flank and crossed the ball to Ja Jeje, who headed the ball right into the net. In the end of the first half Sheriff managed to get the game away from the goal but still there has been no danger.
 
In the second half Sheriff began playing much more intense. Veaceslav Lisa had a good attempt but missed the net. Ismail Isa also played well with Kadu and went almost one on one, but the Chernomorets captain Fontanelho played good in defense. The game became more quick and there has been open football with abundance of goal-scoring opportunities. Stanojevic, Zarichniuk and Pascenco created good chances for our team. On the 88th minute Aleksandr Pascenco made a good cross from the corner kick right to Markovski who was better in the air than the defender and sent the ball into the net with his head. In the additional time Alexander Pascenco scored a goal and made it a draw - 2-2.
