It was Hammadi Ahmad who gave Air Force the lead near the hour mark. The Iraqi side looked deadly in the attacks and the goal was just a matter of time. A wonderfully crafted move saw the ball meet the net.
However, the entire momentum of the game shifted when Mumbai conceded. In a span of just 5 minutes, Mumbai scored 5 goals to win the tie. At the 70th minute mark, Diego Mauricio was fouled in the box. With a calm head, he converted it with ease.
5 minutes later, Rahul Bheke guided home the winner when he hit a bullet header to score the second for his side.
