Capital outshot The Berg 19 to 5 in the first period.
Heidelberg's best opportunity came in the first minute of the second half. Harrison Burge broke down the left side and tried to beat the Capital goalkeeper with a shot toward the back post. However, the goalkeeper was able to kick it away with his heel.
