After Break Recovery

The goalkeeper returned wearing a cap to block the sun from the low sun however he'll experience frustration enabling Amorim's team to level the score post the break.

Glasner's team was unprepared by a quick Bruno Fernandes free-kick allowing the forward to bring under control and pivot in one motion to produce a shot that flew into the net.

Decisive Moment
