Aroa Nieto would add a goal six minutes later in the 15th minute to give the T-Birds a 4-0 lead at hafltime. 

10 minutes into the second half would see Christina cap off her four-goal performance with an unassisted goal to put CCCC up 5-0 and in full control of the match. York College JV would manage to get a goal on what would register as their only shot of the game a few minutes later before seeing Isabella Bertossi put a shot past the keeper to cap off a five-goal victory for the T-Birds.
