Vidi started the second half with a smart move, which saw Lupeta pass from the left towards Gyurcso, who fed Paraiba, who did well to step over the ball into the path of Kovacs, but he hesitated and the defender stepped in to clear. The save of the match came after 51 minutes. Tisza headed and Tujvel pulled off an excellent save. The linesman flagged for offside, but it was still a good save from the Vidi keeper.

Paraiba then found Kovacs in a good position on 58 minutes, and he shot with the outside of his right foot from 7 meters, but the ball came of Verpecz and hit the post before Oliveira shot over. Debrecen could have levelled after 70 minutes. Tisza sent an impressive shot, which hit the crossbar. Gyurcso came to live towards the end with a good cross and shot, while Kovacs also had a powerful shot, but there were no more goals in this second leg.
