Newman grabbed the early 1-0 lead in the 38th minute on a goal by Diana Santillan, only to be answered by DBU's first goal of the game in the 69th minute. Schneidau passed a perfectly placed ball to Senior Mandy Gomez, who connected on her fifth goal of the season.
The Jets retook the lead in 72nd minute on Santillan's second goal of the game and held the lead until the penalty kick.
