So determined was the attack in the early part of the game that two corners were forced in rapid succession. Then Brooklyn broke away but Nelson failed to convert a perfect pass from Adair when he shot bye with an open goal.

The Steelmen then launched one of their most determined attacks, exactly after seven minutes of playing and W. Reid, playing right halfback in place of McDonald and the latter pairing with McMeekin at the back positions, led up from the halfback line to Jaap. The latter, from close range tapped the ball and scored the first goal for Bethlehem.

Brooklyn came back strong and gained two corners. A wicked drive by Reid, right half for Bethlehem Steel, was finally saved by Smith. Another corner came to Brooklyn, after which Smith was called upon to stop a hard grounder from Granger. A great drive by Eisenhoffer went wide by a foot. Stark broke away for Bethlehem and went clean through, but his shot struck the bar. Jaap gained possession on the rebound and his drive likewise hit the cross piece. Next Eisenhoffer sent in a long shot which was heading for the net when McGregor bobbed up and intercepted it, Brooklyn getting a corner. Robertson made a fine effort for Brooklyn and barely missed. As Adair crossed from the right, McGregor jumped in and cleared. This half ended with Bethlehem one up.

The Steelmen came back with a dash. Immediately at the restart and within ten minutes of play had increased their lead. Gillespie made a brilliant run, after a pass by Jaap, the speedy Bethlehem outside right, increased his team's lead with a perfect shot.

Brooklyn's first and only goal came about three minutes later after a determined attack which resulted in a corner. Eisenhoffer took the kick and Nelson headed in. Bethlehem again became the aggressor and midway in the period Goldie crossed over to Gillespie and the latter scored his second goal of the game. The fourth came fifteen minutes from the end when Stark scored from Gillespie's center. The lineup:
