With the game tied 1-1, the teams went into extra time. FC Flora took the lead in the 27th minute of extra time following a cross from the left. The ball had gone in between of RFS Women defenders, bounced at around the penalty kick spot towards the far post, where **Lisette Tammik** was the first to react and caught the keeper on counter-movement to volley the loose ball into the left corner.
