<p>LOS ANGELES (AP) — Maiara Niehues scored the go-ahead goal on a header in the 77th minute to give Angel City a 2-1 victory over Bay FC in the National Women's Soccer League on Monday.</p>
<p>Riley Tiernan also scored for Angel City (6-7-5), which won its second straight after an eight-game winless streak.</p>
<p>Bay (4-9-5) is winless in its last seven matches.</p>
<p>Rookie Riley Tiernan took a pass from M.A. Vignola and ran it down field before cutting inside and dancing around Bay defenders before firing a shot past Bay goalkeeper Jordan Silkowitz in the 12th minute.</p>
<p>It was Tiernan's team-leading eighth goal. She moved into second for most goals ever by an NWSL rookie.</p>
<p>Rachel Hill scored the equalizer for Bay, scoring on the rebound off her own shot on Angel City goalkeeper Hannah Seabert in the 37th minute.</p>
<p>Niehues broke the stalemate on a header off a corner kick.</p>
<p>Angel City's Alyssa Thompson was an excused absence for the game as rumors swirled that Chelsea was in talks to acquire the 20-year-old winger. The transfer deadline in the English Women's Super League is Thursday.</p>
<p>Any fee for Thompson is likely to exceed $1 million. The Orlando Pride recently paid an international record $1.5 million transfer fee for forward Lizbeth Ovalle from Mexico's Tigres.</p>
<p>On Bay FC's side, Asisat Oshoala was also an excused absence amid numerous reports of a move to Al Hilal Saudi Women's Premier League.</p>
