Musovski's first goal came in the fourth minute off a long pass from Brent Richards, his fourth marker in his last four games. The two connected again in the 26th minute, when Richards sent a ball into the area and Musovski headed it home for his second goal of the evening. One minute later, Seth Casiple made it 3-0 off a feed from Musovski near the center of the box.
