Photos: Bambei’s OT goal lifts No. 6 Broomfield girls soccer over Boulder

BROOMFIELD — Makena Bambei won the game twice for No. 6 Broomfield girls soccer in overtime against Boulder on Tuesday.

She had a game-winner taken away from her, only to score again seconds later.

With 3:41 to go in the first overtime, Boulder’s Ellie Huettel got called for a handball, but Bambei put the ball in the back of the net. The referees initially counted Bambei’s game-winner, but then took it away to give a free kick for the handball.

The do-over didn’t seem to bother Bambei, who proceeded to bury the free kick in the back of the net for the 2-1 win.

Anna Boylan scored the lone goal for Boulder in the 12th minute. Bambei netted her first goal in the 46th minute.

This is the second-straight week Boulder took a top-ten team to overtime, drawing No. 5 Rocky Mountain last week.

Broomfield improves to 10-1-0 (7-1-0 Front Range League), while Boulder drops to 6-5-1 (4-4-1).
