Shkendija was anemic in the first 45 minutes, when players with less playing time this season came onto the field. The guests took advantage of this, and had complete control of the game.
They were the first to threaten, through Sikiru, who tried to surprise Shkendija's goalkeeper with a wonderful attempt, but Guaye intervened successfully. Midway through the first half, Xhezair Avdili sent a real missile from 30 meters, but the ball went wide of the home team's goal.
Shkendija threatened for the first time in the 36th minute through Florent Ramadani, but his shot ended up in the hands of the visiting goalkeeper. Five minutes before the end of the first half, Ignjatov also threatened with a shot from 16 meters, but again the goalkeeper of the red and blacks was in the right place.
In the 76th minute, Arbin Zejnulai found himself face to face with goalkeeper Islami, but the ball ended up in the post. Just a few moments later, on the opposite side, in a counterattack, Perović shot hard, but Guaye sent the ball for a corner. Two minutes later, Perović entered the penalty area and hit the crossbar.
In the last five minutes, Latifi had another great chance, entering the penalty area and passing the away goalkeeper, but he failed to shoot, losing his balance. In the extra time, Ibraimi shot hard, but goalkeeper Islami reacted even better.
In the next round, Shkendija will visit Rabotnicki, while Arsimi will host Sileks in Gostivar.
