 a seventh time or for a seventh time
Martin Hewings' ADVANCED GRAMMAR IN USE contains such a sentence:
When Germany scored for a seventh time, the crowd went wild with excitement. (UNIT 26: 26.3.8)
We usually say "do sth a seventh time", I wonder if you could tell me what the difference is between "a seventh time" and "for a seventh time".
Could anyone help me?

Reason: A spelling mistake. And there's still no one to help me.
