Ventura takes a 1-0 at the 9th minute mark, then the Chargers' Thania Valencia punches in a goal off the corner kick from Kimberly Gonzalez at the 40th minute to tie the game. At the 45th minute of the first half, Gonzalez scores directly from another corner kick to give Cypress a 2-1 advantage going into the locker room.
The action continues scoreless until late in the game at the 48th minute mark when Reyna Jacome's shot into the net for an insurance goal, courtesy assist from Valencia. Ventura scored on a rebound goal by Yasmin Lepez at the 72nd minute.
