All five Coquitlam Metro-Ford Synergy shooters scored in penalty kicks as the women's Under-21 soccer side prevailed 2-1 over Cliff Avenue in a Metro league game Sunday at Percy Perry Stadium.

Trailing 1-0 with three minutes remaining, Synergy knotted the count when Andrea Sasvedra took a Michelle Francis feed and scored on a partial breakaway.

After overtime solved nothing, Synergy goalie Jahtantia Gallo made a key stop in penalty kicks to spur the CMF win.

Defender Corynne Ayling was a standout for the Synergy.

CMF DYNAMITE

Justyna Pomalecki struck net twice to rally the Coquitlam Metro-Ford Dynamite to a 4-0 triumph over the North Shore Orions in a girls U-15 cup contest.

Jenny Varley, with her first-ever goal, and Ciara Petti, on a pretty header off a Jenna Kear cross, also scored for the Dynamite.

In league play, Cassie Wiemer netted what proved the winning goal on a rebound and Pomalecki later added an insurance strike as Dynamite bounced the Golden Ears United Panthers 2-0 to hand the Maple Ridge squad just its second loss of the season.

PORT MOODY

Mercedes Hamilton's goal wasn't enough as the Port Moody Nitro were spilled 2-1 by Vancouver United in a girls U-17 game Sunday.

Kassi Koupal and Brianne Wager were strong in a losing cause.
