Oakland Roots created the game's first chance inside six minutes, as Morey Doner and Faysal Bettache forced a quick double save from Tetsuya Kandono.

Oakland registered a third shot on target inside 20 minutes, a tame effort from Faysal Bettache, before Orange County responded a minute later with a tame shot of their own for their first effort on target.

Orange County opened the scoring somewhat against the run of play, as Bryce Jamison found the net off the inside of the post in the 30th minute to give OC a 1-0 lead.

The score remained 1-0 in favor of the visitors as the two sides headed into halftime.

Coach Benny Feilhaber made two halftime changes, one of which led to substitute EJ Johnson forcing a goal-line save from Orange County early in the second half.

Oakland ramped up the pressure, controlling play in the Orange County half through the 80th minute.

The home team made one final late substitution, bringing on forward Luis Saldaña in a last push to chase the game.

Despite recording six shots on goal, Oakland was unable to find an equalizer, as the match ended 1-0 in favor of Orange County.

Oakland will return home to the Coliseum for their next action as they prepare to host Colorado Springs on August 9th following a bye weekend to open August.
