Rose’s Game Winner Gives No. 19 Women’s Soccer 2-1 Victory over Northeastern in Double Overtime

BROOKLINE, Mass. – First-year defender Jade Rose headed home a golden goal in double overtime to give No. 19 Harvard University women's soccer a 2-1 victory over Northeastern University on Wednesday night at Parsons Field.
 
After the nationally ranked Crimson (5-0-1) went ahead in the 12th minute, the Huskies (3-3-1) knotted the score in the 24th minute prior to Rose securing the win for the visitors with her header at the 104:40 mark. Harvard remains undefeated through its first six games for the first time since 1996.
 
In the 105th minute with 5:20 left in the second overtime, Rose came forward for a corner kick and re-directed a ball from fellow first-year Hannah Bebar from the edge of the six-yard box into the right side of the goal.
 
Senior Murphy Agnew opened the scoring at the 11:56 mark, sending a shot from the edge of the box into the lower left corner of the goal off assists from junior Angela Caloia and first-year Ainsley Ahmadian. Northeastern drew level at 23:12 off a penalty kick from Mikenna McManus. Harvard gained control in the latter stages of the contest, holding a 21-4 advantage in shots after halftime and a 15-0 edge in shots from the 84th minute onwards.
