- 39' | After winning the ball on the left sideline, Tyshawn Rose cut in on the end line and as he hit the edge of the box, slotted a pass back to an open Suski. Suski took a touch before rifling a shot under the crossbar.
- 43' | Suski got the ball on the left side of the field and then dribbled into the box before a pass back to Sigurdarson at the six. Sigurdarson beat the defender and was able to poke the ball just inside the left post.
