Rose Lavelle, who starred for Cincinnati United Premier and Mount Notre Dame High School, scored her first goal of the Women's Soccer League regular season for Manchester City in a 4-0 win Sunday against West Ham.
Lavelle came off the bench in the 65th minute and scored about six minutes later.
Reactions from social media:
Last week, the United States Women's National Team star had a cow named after her. Forward Madison FC - the USL League One team in Madison, Wisconsin - held a fan contest to name a calf delivered by its team cow. Rose Cowbelle was the winner.
Last November, Lavelle's goal in the 41st minute of USWNT's first match since March gave the team a 1-0 lead against the Netherlands in a 2-0 win.
Lavelle was in New York City for a ticker-tape parade to celebrate USWNT's FIFA Women's World Cup title when she tweeted that video of Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Garden hippo Fiona reminded Lavelle of her own halftime hydration routine.
Lavelle scored the team's second goal during USWNT's win in the final against the Netherlands, earning the Bronze Ball - given to the tournament's third-most outstanding player.
