The Lynn English girls soccer team won its second straight game Monday with a late goal by Alexa Zayas, to defeat Revere, 3-2.
Lucy Quiroa got the Bulldogs (3-4) off to a good start with two goals in the first half. But Revere put one in just as the half ended, and it set the stage for a wild second period.
“They were all over us,” said English coach Ed McNeil. “I thought we’d be lucky if we got out of there with a tie.
Revere did get the equalizer, “but Alexa has a rocket of a shot, and she uncorked one,” said McNeil.
The win was English’s second in a row, “and that doesn’t happen to often,” McNeil said.
Tommi Hill withstood Revere’s surge in the second half and allowed the score to remain tied so that Zayas’ heroics became possible, McNeil said. Also playing well for English was Grace Gately, a senior defender.
“She hasn’t come off the field yet,” McNeil said.

At Manning Field, the Rams were flat, said coach Mark Ierardi.
“We didn’t execute the way we did the last couple of games,” he said. “We were missing on too many passes. We had the opportunities, but didn’t cash in. We weren’t as sharp as we’d like to be.”
Ierardi said it’s back to the drawing board.
“We’ll work on some things and hopefully we’ll have a better effort Friday (at home, 5:15, against Everett).
