Fisher's Golden Goal Sends Women's Soccer Past Manhattan in Double Overtime

Fisher scores game winner in 106th minute

LAWRENCEVILLE, NJ – Chloe Fisher (Warrington, England/Cronton Sixth Form College) scored the golden goal in the 106th minute as the Rider University Women's Soccer Team earned a 1-0 win at home on Ben Cohen Field against Manhattan Saturday evening. With the win, the Broncs improve to 4-6-2 (2-3-1 MAAC), while the Jaspers fall to 6-4-0 (2-3 MAAC). 

The game remained scoreless after regulation play, and the Broncs and Jaspers moved into overtime. The Broncs would break the stalemate late into overtime play. Lindsey Maslow (Hanover, MA/Hanover) connected to Makenzie Rodrigues (Seattle, WA/Forest Ridge), who would then pass to Fisher. The junior would juggle the ball over Manhattan defenders and the goalkeeper to score the golden goal in the 106th minute, securing the Rider victory.

Quotes and Notes
"We played well and created chances. We competed hard. Our defense did really well. We could argue we have one of the best goalies in the conference, and both center backs did fantastic today. Without our defensive unit and our goalkeeper, we would not have been able to keep this team scoreless.

It was desire, who was going to fight and scrap for that ball, and Chloe was able to come up with it. It wasn't a pretty goal, but it is desire and passion that we lacked the other day, but showed it tonight."– Rider Head Coach Drayson Hounsome

"It was a 50/50 bauble, and it was one of those lucky balls. She was on the floor so I just smashed it in to the bottom corner. I've had a few games out, I got an injury early on in the season, so the last few games that I've got I have to take every opportunity and it was giving everything I could." – Rider Women's Soccer Forward Chloe Fisher
