Riding a five-game winning streak, Freehold Boro jumped out to a 2-0 lead on the road in Rumson. The Colonials broke through on an own goal in the 30th minute and extended their edge to 2-0 on an 18-yard smash by junior Klodian Jaku.

A foul 30 yards from the goal gave Santos an opportunity for a direct kick in the 15th minute of overtime and the senior captain skipped a firm shot that Freehold Boro goalkeeper Christian Rebelo deflected, but not enough to keep it from striking the inside of the left post and rolling into the net for the winning goal.

Pessoa served up a corner kick to the far-right post for senior Shane Sullivan, who headed the ball in from inside the six-yard box for a 1-o Shore lead in the 14th minute. Senior Michael Ilvento extended the lead to 2-0 in the 32nd minute by slotting a shot inside the right post off a find from senior Bryan Silveira. Ilvento’s goal came just four minutes after Ilvento drilled a half-volley off the bottom of the crossbar.
Silveira picked up his second assist of the game by getting the ball to Pessoa ahead of his second-half goal. Pessoa controlled the ball on the move, beat his defender and drilled a shot to the lower-left of the goal for a 3-0 Blue Devils lead in the 64th minute.
