The Buruj FC boys, not relenting in their efforts to turn the game around with their attacking approach, forced a  Spartan FC defender to bring down Buruj FC player, Hamed Gafar, in the eighteen yard box. Even though it was very glaring, the referee did not award a penalty. So the first half ended two nil in favour of Spartan FC.
