Guyana did the early pressing, forcing a penalty corner which was stopped on the line by a foot. From the resulting penalty stroke, USA goalkeeper Samantha Carlino (Kennett Square, Pa.) made a diving save to her left to deny Guyana in front of a large partisan crowd. The Indoor USWNT were awarded a penalty corner in the 5th minute at the other end which Ali Campbell (Boyertown, Pa.) converted to give USA a 1-0 lead. A minute later, a passing move which included all five players on the court finished with Samantha Popper (Blue Bell, Pa.) scoring on a first time shot. In the 17th minute, Anarose McDonough (Kennett Square Pa.) found Mary Beth Barham (Fairfax, Va.) open in the circle to give USA a three goal lead, and right before half time Campbell converted another penalty corner to make it 4-0.

 

With USA controlling the second half Barham took a ball off the left board, cut across to the right edge of the circle and fired in a goal to give USA a 5-0 lead. Guyana converted their first penalty corner of the half off the outstretched glove of Carlino to put one goal back at 5-1. USA's Sierra Espeland (Fredericksburg, Va.) took over in goal to earn her first international cap, while at the other end Campbell converted two more penalty corners to give USA a 7-1 victory.
