The visitors struck first in the 19th minute as midfielder Rhys Williams won a free kick in the attacking half of the pitch. Midfielder James Murphy took the ensuing free kick, sending one into the box to defender Stephen Carroll. Carroll headed one into the top right corner of the net, giving Detroit an early 1-0 lead.

OCSC had their first quality chance of the night in the 34th minute, when midfielder Brian Iloski found forward Ethan Zubak on the right wing. Zubak cut back on his left and fired a shot on target that was saved by Detroit City goalkeeper Nathan Steinwascher.

The County Boys found the equalizer in the 40th minute, as defender Andrew Fox sent in a beautiful ball over the top to Amang. Amang struck one with his right foot that deflected off a Detroit defender and rolled its way into the back of the net, tying the contest at 1-1.

Both teams went into the break even, each looking for a chance at the winner in the second half.

The Black and Orange claimed the lead in the 57th minute when defender Owen Lambe controlled the ball on the right side of the pitch. He played a square ball into the box that made its way to Kyle Scott after a brilliant dummy run from Cameron Dunbar. Scott connected first time with a rocket off his right foot and into the back of the net, giving OCSC a 2-1 lead.

However in the 65th minute, Detroit City FC was awarded a penalty after a foul in the box. Midfielder Abdoulaye Diop stepped up to take the penalty, converting a right-footed-shot into the bottom left corner of the net, leveling the contest at 2-2.
