As with their first match, Naegohyang started aggressively, with Choe Kum Ok making two spirited attempts within the first five minutes. Min Kyong Jin, with an empty goalmouth in front of her, then failed to control a cross from Jong Kum in the eighth minute.

Ri Su Jong, however, made no mistake four minutes later when she coolly lobbed the ball from the edge of the box over an onrushing Jaqueline Catano.

Kim Song Ok increased their lead in the 14th minute when she came down the middle and went around a flat-footed Catano to put the ball in from the left.

Jong claimed goal number three 10 minutes later when she connected with a pass from Ri in the centre of the area and had the simplest of tasks of sweeping the ball home.

Catano was kept on her toes for the final 15 minutes of the first half, and did well to stave off Kim, Ri and Jong, who saw her 41st minute point-blank shot superbly saved.

But the custodian was caught off position in the 45th minute, when Pak Hyo Son - who had come on just three minutes earlier - curled the ball in from the right.

Naegohyang started the second half with Pak Hyon Jong hitting the right post with her 30-yard shot before Ri collected her second goal in the 65th minute by drilling the ball past Catano after being set up by Pak.

Kim was in position to get her second in the 71st minute, but saw her close-range volley palmed away by Catano.

Captain Ri Kum Hyang nabbed goal number six in the 84th minute when Catano failed to handle her header before Pak secured her brace a minute later by reaching the ball before the keeper and heading in from six yards.
