Bend it like Nogueira

Posted Dec 8, 2008
North Carolina junior forward Casey Nogueira sent up a cross that turned into the game-winning shot as the Tar Heels claimed their second national soccer title in three years. Notre Dame goalkeeper Kelsey Lysander had no chance at getting to the bending path of the ball off Nogueira's left foot, after she had floated left inside the box and delivered it to the right corner of the net with just over two minutes left in the contest.
