USF's Late Goal Downs Auburn to Highlight Five-Win Opening Night

USF 2, Auburn 1
No.18/14 USF defeated Auburn 2-1 Thursday night with a game-winning goal delivered by Sydny Nasello in the last twenty seconds of the game. With the threat of overtime looming, Nasello sealed the victory for the Bulls in the 90th minute after Sabrina Wagner worked the ball to the inside of the field, setting Nasello up to seal the game with a shot that sailed above the Auburn keeper.

USF took an early lead when all-time leading scorer Evelyne Viens scored her first goal of this season on a pass from Nasello in the fourth minute.
