They don\u2019t give up. They keep fighting, they keep going.\u201d<\/p><p> <\/p><p>After the Panthers took the lead early in the first half on a goal by Lauren Lopez, Enslee Ashjian later added another goal for the visitors.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>But the Coyotes would rally. That was thanks in large part to senior Natalia Mata, who scored two goals to help the Coyotes force overtime.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Mata scored her first goal when she was assisted by Atiana Pinon. The senior showed off her composure when she scored again in the second half, breaking away from the defenders and calmly slipping the ball through the legs of the keeper.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>Mata had another chance earlier in the game when she received a cross from Adela Avarez. The senior, however, failed to beat the goalkeeper as she took a shot in front of goal.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>The Coyotes also came close to scoring early in the second half when Mariah Zapata\u2019s free kick bounced off the post and stayed out. After missing out on a few more opportunities, the Coyotes found themselves in an overtime duel with the Panthers.<\/p><p>The first 10-minute overtime period ended scoreless as both defense limited scoring opportunities.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>In the second overtime period, however, junior Adela Alvarez received a pass from Mata and tucked the ball away inside the right post. Just like that, the home team found the winning goal with seconds left.<\/p><p> <\/p><p>\u201cIt\u2019s exciting. It\u2019s part of the competition,\u201d Hill said about the intense battle, adding that he was a little nervous. \u201cThe girls battled to the end. We got the goal that we deserved.
