It was\u00a0always going to be back and forth game,&#8221; said Dinos head coach <a href=\"https:\/\/godinos.com\/sports\/womens-soccer\/roster\/coaches\/diogo-raposo\/2787\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"2787\" target=\"_blank\">Diogo Raposo<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Dinos pressed from the opening whistle and found the breakthrough in the 36th minute. DiGiacomo scored her sixth goal of the season with a header from a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/godinos.com\/sports\/womens-soccer\/roster\/brooke-batty\/17255\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"17255\" target=\"_blank\">Brooke Batty<\/a> corner, giving Calgary a 1-0 lead it carried into the break.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;We came out with a lot of energy today, and we just got the job done,&#8221; DiGiacomo said. &#8220;It was a battle, as it always is against this team.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Calgary doubled the advantage early in the second half. Mysko had come on as a substitute only 84 seconds earlier when she finished a pass from <a href=\"https:\/\/godinos.com\/sports\/womens-soccer\/roster\/danica-pullishy\/17269\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"17269\" target=\"_blank\">Danica Pullishy<\/a> in the 52nd minute for her fourth goal of the season. <a href=\"https:\/\/godinos.com\/sports\/womens-soccer\/roster\/jaden-tomaszewski\/17271\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"17271\" target=\"_blank\">Jaden Tomaszewski<\/a> nearly made it 3-0 shortly after the hour mark, hitting the crossbar with an effort from distance.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;I think we were\u00a0a bit frustrated at 2-0,&#8221; Raposo said. &#8220;We had three or four chances to make it 3-0 and probably kill off the game, and we didn&#8217;t do that. I think we did more than enough.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Mount Royal pulled one back in the 70th minute when Tamara Djurisic converted a penalty kick, her fourth goal of the year. The Dinos held firm from there. Goalkeeper <a href=\"https:\/\/godinos.com\/sports\/womens-soccer\/roster\/cheridan-johnson\/17282\" rel=\"smarttag nofollow noopener\" rev=\"17282\" target=\"_blank\">Cheridan Johnson<\/a> made two saves, and Calgary closed out the win in front of 228 fans.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Dinos outshot the Cougars 15-8, including a 5-3 edge in shots on goal. Mount Royal goalkeeper Ella Filek made three saves.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The Dinos will return to action Thursday, Oct. 15, at 6 p.m. when they host the University of Lethbridge Pronghorns.
