Devon Pollard, TrojanWire

There were high expectations, pitting the National Champion USC women's soccer team against the Mexico women's national team in a friendly match that was aimed at prepping Mexico for the Olympic qualifying tournament in April. Mexico had led, but USC's Megan Ohai tied the score on a header off of Ashli Sandoval's free kick. According to dailybreeze.com the game, which took place at the coliseum Friday night, was tied 1-1 going into the 79th minute. Then Mexico took control.

Villalplano, who plays at UC Riverside, took advantage of a Trojans misplay in the box and booted in an unassisted goal at 79:25...Soon after, at 82:38, Mora hit a soft pop shot over charging USC All-American goalkeeper Kristin Olsen.

Mexico went on to beat the Women of Troy, 3-1.
