Oregon State outplayed No. 2 Notre Dame for much of Friday night’s College Cup semifinal, but as is often the case in soccer, one great shot can be the difference.

Eno Nto shot a ball through a narrow opening, skidding a 7-yard blast past Oregon State keeper Luis Castillo during the 51st minute, the lone goal in Notre Dame’s 1-0 win over the Beavers at Lynn Family Stadium in Louisville, Kentucky.
