An unexpectedly hard shot by Nick Egel in the 3rd minute of play forced Louisiana's goalkeeper Edwin Oreilly to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. If Jerrard Pickhills had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 7th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead.
