The Gophers women's soccer team fell 2-1 in overtime to Ohio State on Sunday in Columbus in the Big Ten opener for both teams. The Buckeyes poked home the game-winner in the 99th minute.

The Gophers took an early 1-0 lead in the 11th minute when Taylor Uhl, who was posted up 10 yards in front of the goal, dished off to Katie Thyken, who struck the ball to the far post.

The Gophers (5-3) controlled possession for most of the half with an 8-1 shot advantage -- four on goal.

With five minutes remaining in regulation, the Buckeyes' Marisa Wolf bounced in the game-tying goal, and Tiffany Cameron scored the winner in OT for Ohio State's sixth consecutive victory.

Minnesota returns home to face Michigan and Michigan State next weekend.
