Sifoe went into the break with a 2-0 advantage.
As action resumed in the second period of the game, Sifoe picked up from where they left off in the first half, and continued to mount heavy pressure and created several goal-scoring opportunities, and their efforts paid dividends in the dying minutes of the game when Moses Perierra grabbed the third goal from a stunning strike to seal the victory for Sifoe.
