Late Goals Lift Liberal

Final from Redskin Field :

Liberal 2
Great Bend

Liberals’s girls soccer team shutout Great Bend for the second time this season. LHS dominated on possession and created a lot of chances at goal. After a somewhat frustrating scoreless half (dominated possession and led 6-0 shots on goal)
Liberal continued to combine and stay in control of the game in the second half but with a little bit more intensity and that was the difference maker.
-With only 3:40 to go in the game, (#14/JR) Gisselle Melendez found (#11/FR) Bryanna Banuelos for the tap in goal. Well deserved after so many minutes and so many chances at GB’s goal.
-With 16 seconds remaining in the game, (#23/JR) Kim Alarcon finds an open (#14/JR) Gisselle Melendez who finished with a great shot to the second post, upper 90.
