Zwirblis and the Pioneers came out of the second half firing on all cylinders with a goal in the 52nd and 53rd minutes Zwirblis scored again from a Mata-Ruiz pass, and then Mata-Ruiz netted one of his own the next minute. The final goal of the night was an unassisted goal from Farhan Abdi in the 61st minute, all but ending the game.
