Five minutes later, Echeverry was again in on the action, drawing a penalty kick at the right edge of the penalty box. Angel stepped up to the spot and buried it, making the score 2-0.

Three minutes after the break, Castro-Tello was able to get into the box again before putting a shot right at goalkeeper Danny Cepero.

In the 51st minute, Hammarby again came close when Freddy Soderberg got free on the right wing and hit a shot just past the right post. Hammarby was finally able to get on the board in the 66th minute when Dadomo was able to unleash a shot into the back of the net.
