Just four minutes later, Serbia United re-gained their lead from Sasha Vukovic who intercepted a Dynamo pass and sent a powerful shot into the back of the net. Serbia United would not keep their lead for long as in the 13th minute, Felipe Rech beat the keeper to the ball and knocked into the net to make it 2-2.

Vukovic followed in the same minute with an interception from kick-off and long strike, proving to be too high for the keeper. Just before half-time, Samuel Deschenes cut the lead to 4-3 after tapping in a shot that originally hit the inside of the crossbar and stayed out. Serbia United led at half-time with a one goal lead.
Immediately following half-time, Serbia United went right back on the attack in the 25th minute.

MFC Dynamo answered back in the 28th minute to make it 5-4. Vaclav Cahyna’s strike from a long way out was powerful enough to beat the keeper even from such a far distance. In the 31st and 35th minute, Vukovic and Samardzija extended Serbia United’s lead again. Samardzija’s goal was a penalty and Vukovic’s goal was a clean 1-on-1 put through the legs of the keeper. In the 36th minute, Mike Lazarevic dribbled all the way from his end to MFC Dynamo’s end and sharply put the ball away. Middleton’s shot was originally saved in the 41st minute but he rebounded his own miss and passed to Samardzija for another powerful goal.

In the dying moments of the second half, Cahyna and Hinojosa would add two more for MFC to end the game at 12-6.
