But neither did Mirandés, despite their greater control of the game, find the necessary lucidity in the last third of the field.
The tie lasted as long as it took Faithful in sharpening the aim. Already in the second half he warned the Nigerian striker first from inside the area, but in the second he had put it inside with a powerful shot from outside.
