With two late goals, the first from Chris Peritore and the second from Ignacio Farjas, the Fishermen were able to end a losing streak and a scoreless streak in one ten minute burst.
For the fourth straight game the Fishermen entered halftime having neither scored nor having yielded a single goal. Early on in the second half it looked for a moment like the Fishermen would yield the first second half goal as they had in three previous defeats.
Anthony LaRocca was adjudged to have fouled a Beverly striker in the penalty area. However, the striker missed the ensuing penalty kick and the game remained deadlocked.
As the second half wore on Gloucester goalkeeper Chase Kelly made several strong saves and more importantly did not yield second opportunities.
Finally, late in the second half Chris Peritore looped a header into the far corner after a failed Beverly clearance of a Gloucester cornerkick. Gloucester continued to pour forward, looking for a second. Those efforts paid off when junior Aaron Horne's first varsity assist led to Ignacio Farjas' first Gloucester goal.
