The second half saw the Tornadoes start strong and put pressure on the Monarchs. Again, the Monarchs would not break. The game would stay 1-0 for the first 20 minutes of the second half. However, the Monarchs would pull away with 3 goals over a 10-minute span to lead 4-0. The Tornadoes would have one final counter but were held out of the back of the net. The Monarchs went on to win 4-0.
