Boima Karpeh gave Sporting the lead on the half-hour mark, but Tolgay Ozbey cancelled it out in the 72nd minute. In the 83rd minute, Arturo Garcia converted a penalty-kick to reclaim the momentum in Sporting's favour, but Haroon Amiri restored parity only four minutes later. However, it was the second penalty strike by Garcia in the 105th minute, which proved out to be decisive and helped them progress.
