Team Chicago Academy-Botafogo got off to a great start at the CASL Raleigh Showcase earlier today by defeating FC North United from Pittsburgh 3-1.

Botafogo went up 1-0 inside 5 minutes when Molly Piech played a good ball in behind the defense for Zoey Goralski to run onto. Zoey attacked the end-line a played a perfect ball across the top of the 6 for Dani Pitaro to score.

North United came right back and tied it up a couple of minutes later, but after 15 minutes Dana Miller got what proved to be the game-winner. Hope D’Addario played a cross to Molly Piech who laid it off for Dana Miller to finish far post on the ground.

With 5 minutes left in the 2nd half Darby Moran found a streaking Zoey Goralski who once again attacked the end-line and played a perfect ball across the top of the 6, and this time it was Dana Miller bagging her 2nd goal of the game.
