There were early tests for both goalkeepers, Stallion Laguna’s Olivia McDaniel was alert to a speculative Raeka Ee shot from range while Sailors’ Izairida Shakira was in the right position to deal with a Mia Bookhard drive from distance.

Chandler McDaniel forced a good save from Izairida in the 21st minute and from the ensuing corner, the Stallion Laguna captain found Halleran Johnson who nodded home.

Stallion Laguna continued to dictate terms after the opener, Angelica Teves sending her effort over the bar from close range before Chandler’s shot on the turn was tipped away by Izairida.

Stallion Laguna, however, doubled their advantage a minute before the break, Tayla Christensen feeding Chandler for a thumping shot into the roof of the net.
