The Thunder came back quickly as #10, Breanna Callander, was able to find the back of the net. The Thunder were able to find the back of the net late into the first half as #10, Breanna Callander, took a shot from outside the 18 yard box, and scored off the post.

In the second half, the Eagles were able to push their way back as they continued to put pressure on the Thunder. The Eagles' pressure finally paid off as they were able to counter the Thunder and have #4 Gabriella Rocque score. The Eagles continued to push on but were unable to find the back of the net again as they fell to the Thunder 3-1.
