How it Happened:
  • Bentley had early momentum, taking the game's first two shots. The Falcons' most dangerous chance came in the 16th minute, when Catalanotti dove to her left to make the save and keep Bentley off the board.
  • Adelphi took charge with two chances in the ensuing minutes. Goodrich's shot was saved by the opposing goalkeeper, and the rebound fell to Veronica Polentarutti, whose second-chance attempt sailed high.
  • Late in the first half, the Falcons struck. Bentley created a chance off a throw-in, crossing the ball through the box for Cami Ayandele to tap in.
  • In the 63rd minute, the visitors applied pressure with three shots. The third came point-blank in front of Catalanotti, where a Bentley player tucked the ball inside the far post to double the lead.
  • The home team had two quality chances in the 78th minute. Goodrich's attempt from inside the 18-yard box was punched away, leaving an open net for Perugini, whose shot also went above the goal.
  • The Panthers cut into the deficit in the 83rd minute when Goodrich created separation and received a feed into the box from Perugini, driving the ball into the bottom-right corner to make it 2-1.
  • Less than two minutes later, the Falcons scored the dagger, reestablishing their two-goal lead.
