The clock was showing just three minutes of regular time left and still Manchester United had not been able to get that equalizer that they needed so much.

They were giving it their all trying to press high and disorientate the Bilbeth Premier League side but their tactics were proving futile so far as they were being stopped in their tracks with every single move made.

"Unique FC are really doing well to hold Manchester United down here, looks like this match turned out the way I expected it to at the end," Jim said.

Rivaldo tried to dribble his way past Pirlo but after almost losing the ball to him in the process, he had to trap back to Nolan who had stretched out on the right wing.

Nolan received the ball and instead of attempting to put Roland to the test with one of his runs, he decided to send the ball back to Maldini.

"Maldini."

"We have two minutes of regular time left," Steve said.

Maldini rolled the ball along with him for a while before he suddenly sped off down the middle escaping from both Ferran and Mateo.

"Oh, Maldini is trying to do something here."

The midfielder sped down the middle and just before he could get to the defensive trio blocking his path he lobbed the ball to Nolan on the right wing.

The striker didn't even wait for the ball to touch the floor because he would have to go past Roland then, instead, he sent the ball flying toward the goalpost with a volley.

"Nolan!"

Dave happened to be in the right place just beside the right post and all he needed to do was raise his hand and hit the ball over the crossbar for a corner kick.

"Never mind, Dave still doesn't want to give them a goal," Jim said.

"Come on," Maldini grumbled before he quickly made his way to the right corner kick spot to take the corner kick.

"Corner kicks are one of Unique FC's weak points in defense, they've managed to clear the earlier two but I have a feeling that this one's going to be different," Steve said.

"Regular time has come to an end and it looks like we're going to have five minutes of added time. Can Manchester United use this chance to get that equalizer or are they going to have to deal with a loss against Unique FC?"

Maldini stood over the ball at the corner kick spot waiting for the referee's whistle and as soon as he heard it, he quickly took two steps backward before he closed up on the ball and sent it flying into the box.

Dave wanted to try diving and grabbing the ball but the ball was sent too far away from his goal line and attempting it in that condition would be risky.

Pirlo jumped up it with Rivaldo in contention for the ball and Pirlo was the one to get his head to it as he had the height advantage even though Rivaldo had jumped up first but things didn't go as planned.

He wanted to nod the ball out but instead, the ball deflected on his bed and fell off toward the far right of the goalpost with Dave standing in the middle of his goal line.

Dave dived toward the ball but his reaction seemed a bit late and before he could get his hand to it, the ball hit the post and rolled past the goal line.

"Oh, no! It's gone into the goalpost! What a terrible mistake from Pirlo! Manchester United have finally gotten that equalizer!"

The goal wasn't really anything to be hyped up about as it was an own goal but still, they had to celebrate as it wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for Maldini's cross.

"I knew keeping a clean sheet against Manchester United was too good to be true," Dave muttered before sitting up on the floor with his back against the post.

"Unique FC were so close to beating Manchester United in their first meeting in history but that mistake from Pirlo just took away that moment from them," Jim said.
