Onduparaka continued piling pressure on Proline as they sought an equalizer and three minutes to the half-time break, they almost managed to snatch one when a Mohammad Shaban cross into the box was punched back by Saidi Keni and confusion ensued in the Proline box but the defence recovered first to clear the ball before Shaban could shoot.
