Walter Ochoa has been Bonanza’s go-to player throughout the season, so it wasn’t surprising that he recorded the game’s biggest play again on Monday.

The senior striker scored the game-winner in overtime to give the Bengals (No. 2 Desert League, 14-4) a 3-2 home victory over Liberty (No. 3 Mountain League 16-4-2).

It was the second goal of the game for Ochoa, whose team advances to the semifinals. The Bengals play Faith Lutheran at Coronado Friday at 2 p.m.

Jose Quintero also scored a goal for Bonanza, and goalkeeper Adrian Avalos had nine saves.

■ No. 1M Faith Lutheran 2, No. 4D Tech 1: At Faith Lutheran, Cameron Sullivan scored on a penalty kick in the last minute of double overtime as the Crusaders (17-2-3) rallied to beat the Roadrunners (14-8-3). Huba Hajdu also scored a goal for Faith Lutheran, and Travis Rabe added an assist.

■ No. 1D Sierra Vista 4, No. 4M Rancho 0: At Sierra Vista, Dominic Portale and Lazzar Ramos each finished with a goal and an assist as the Mountain Lions (16-2-1) blanked the Rams (8-5-1). Goalie Nicholas Durazzo recorded the shutout with three saves for Sierra Vista, which raced out to a 3-0 first-half lead.

■ No. 6M Cheyenne 2, No. 2M Canyon Springs 0: At Canyon Springs, Angel Navarro and Ricardo Mendoza each scored a goal to lead the Desert Shields (6-8-2) to an upset win against the Pioneers (21-3-2). Cheyenne will face Sierra Vista in the other state semifinal at 4 p.m. Friday at Coronado.
