Lincoln Red Imps FC left Estadi Nacional d'Andorra with the result they had chased, but Inter Club d'Escaldes forced the match to finish level after a second-half fightback in Andora la Vella. The 1-1 scoreline was settled by two goals in the last half-hour, with Lincoln Red Imps FC striking first through the 63rd minute and Inter Club d'Escaldes answering in the 80th.

Both sides were set out in 4-3-3 shapes, with Felip Ortiz in charge of Inter Club d'Escaldes and Juanma Pavon leading Lincoln Red Imps FC.

At half-time it was 0-0, and that reflected a game in which neither side had found a clean final action before the interval. The venue, Estadi Nacional d'Andorra, gave the tie a compact stage, and the 16:00+00:00 kickoff translated into Tuesday 14 July, 22:00 +06 for Bangladesh viewers.
Lincoln Red Imps FC made the first move after the restart, and the 63rd minute goal gave them the lead they had been building toward.

Their response came in the 80th minute, when they levelled the score and turned the closing minutes into a chase rather than a protection exercise. The final 1-1 ordinaryTime result matched the score at full time, while the aggregateScore of 4-2 underlined why the away side still advanced the broader tie. In Bangladesh, where many supporters track European qualifiers late in the evening, that late equaliser would have kept attention fixed right through the last phase.
The discipline of the match also mattered. Inter Club d'Escaldes picked up a yellow card in the 31st minute, Lincoln Red Imps FC were booked in the 68th minute, and Inter Club d'Escaldes collected another yellow card in the 69th.
