Nazareth Academy came out aggressive and capitalized on two early scoring opportunities to take control of the match. The Roadrunners’ disciplined backline and sharp counterattacks exposed gaps in the Ravens’ defense, allowing them to build a comfortable 3–0 lead by the break.
Intrinsic showed moments of promise through the midfield, with Jhon Rojas and Nicolas Vazquez working to control possession and push the ball forward. Despite their efforts, the Ravens struggled to convert their build-up play into clear scoring chances. Nazareth’s defense held firm, cutting off passing lanes and keeping the Ravens’ top scorers contained.
Defensively, Leopoldo Resender and John Welch anchored the back line for Intrinsic, making key stops to prevent further damage. Goalkeeper John Galeana Jr. made several important saves to keep the Ravens within reach, preventing the deficit from widening before halftime.
Nazareth’s execution and composure have been the difference so far, while the Ravens will need to regroup and find more attacking rhythm to climb back into this playoff matchup.
