If a certain soccer game ended 3:2, what is the probability that the side that lost scored first?

(Assume that all scoring scenarios are equiprobable)

1/4

3/10

2/5

5/12

1/2

OA: C

Would love to know where logic in choosing E went wrong. After all, first goal is like a coin toss, any team could have scored it equally, so it’s a 50/50 chance.
