In the first half, both teams were getting chippy with each other and in the 12^th minute of action a pivotal red card would be placed on a Prairiewolves player which meant for the rest of the game they would be short-handed a man on the field.

The Prairiewolves would add a goal late in the first half to bring the Spartan lead to 2-1. Shortly after the Prairiewolves goal, there would be lightning in the area and the game would be delayed for about an hour and then would resume play to finish out the 1^st half.

Moving into the second half, the Spartans were not satisfied. They would extend their lead to 3-1 thanks to a goal from Eloi Niyibizi in the 53^rd minute off the pass from Emil Windahl. The Spartans would continue the attack and would score just minutes later from none other than Gloire Luwara to attain a hat trick on the night.
