It had been twenty minutes since the match kicked off and so far none of the teams had been able to convert the chances they got.
Benfica had made a total of three attempts so far with one of them being on target and that chance was the closest they had come to scoring against Unique FC.
It was a low shot from their striker Eryk, he closed up at the edge of the box a little before he sent the ball flying toward the left side of the goalpost.
Alexander quickly stretched his leg toward the ball and blocked it and just before Lakoviç could get to the ball, he dived toward it and covered it with both of his hands.
The closest Unique FC was a volley from Mateo which flew over the crossbar from the right and had come so close to entering the goalpost.
"This match has been a cagey affair so far but if Benfica continue doing what they're doing, they're going to make a breakthrough soon, Unique FC should step up their game if they want to keep this game leveled." Jim expressed.
Just like the commentator said, Benfica were the ones currently running the game, their high-pressing form of play was certainly not good for the Bilbeth Premier League side.
'Come on, Catherine, just tell me what it is, I don't want something to happen and then the quest will get canceled.'
'Okay.'

[ Goals conceded: 1/9 ]
'Oh, so that goal doesn't count because it wasn't scored against me.'
'What happens if I don't play the entire match?'
'Yeah, the quest will get canceled.'
"Mateo!" Jim exclaimed as the winger sent the ball flying toward the goalpost after dribbling his way past the right back but his shot had gone straight toward the goalkeeper so it was an easy catch for him.
"No, Mateo, you should have gone low and aimed for the far post," Minino said with a frustrated tone to his voice.
"What happened?" Dave asked after raising his head.
"Mateo broke free on one of his solo runs and managed to get a clear shooting chance but he just fired it at the goalkeeper," Minino explained.
"Oh," Dave said before turning his gaze back to the pitch.
"Mateo had almost equalized the game for his team just after going behind if only he had been a little cunning with his shot," Steve commented.
The clock was showing forty-five minutes now with four minutes of added time and Benfica had just won a corner kick after a superb save from Alexander, a save that had caused the fans to get up from their seats.
Lakoviç knew getting past Roland was going to be hard so he just turned toward Eryk and lobbed the ball to the striker.
Nobody expected it but the striker just pulled his leg back and sent the ball flying toward the top right-hand side of the goalpost.
Alexander immediately took off as soon as he saw the ball heading toward him and with the tip of his left glove, he was able to push the ball over the bar.
"Oh, what a save from Alexander!" Jim exclaimed.
"Looks like the kid is starting to recall the notes he took from you," Minino said while clapping softly.
"That was an awesome save," Dave said. "Looks like Unique FC has another talent in between the sticks today."
"Yeah, a lite version," Steve said.
Lakoviç was standing over the ball at the corner kick spot waiting for the referee's whistle and as soon as he heard it, he took two steps backward before he closed up on the ball and sent it flying into the box.
"He's swung it in."
The two main contenders for the ball in the air were Aima and Eryk and that had resulted in Eryk crashing to the floor possibly under Aima's touch.
The referee blew his whistle as Aima quickly raised both of his hands to claim that he didn't touch him but the referee wasn't going to listen to that and just pointed at the spot for a penalty kick.
"Oh, things just keep getting better for Benfica, they've been awarded a penalty kick with the second half just about to come to an end," Jim said.
"To be honest, Jim, I don't think that was a penalty kick," Steve said. "I don't think Aima made any rough physical contact with him that is worthy of a foul."
"Penalty? How was that a foul?" Dave said with a stunned look on his face.
"I'm wondering the same thing, that was clearly a dive."
