Men’s Soccer Earns 3-3 Road Draw at No. 21/10 Indiana

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – For the second straight match, the Portland Pilots men's soccer team overcame a two-goal deficit to pull out a draw with Tuesday's 3-3 result at No. 21/10 Indiana at Bill Armstrong Stadium. Portland remains unbeaten at 0-0-2, while the eight-time NCAA champion Hoosiers move to 0-1-1. Indiana dropped a 3-2 road match to defending NCAA champion Clemson Tigers to open the season.
 

How it Happened

  • The Pilots pulled one back in the 32nd minute when Sangha sprung Sebastian Nava down the right side. His cross was nodded in by Jacob Babalai.
  • Portland made it 3-3 in the 57th minute as Sangha picked up his third assists of the match as Nava chested in his cross for the final score of the match.

  • Pilot goalkeeper George Tasouris recorded six saves, all in the second half, to help secure the draw.

  • The win snapped Indiana's nine-game home winning streak.
     
Portland Head Coach Nick Carlin-Voigt
"Great fight again by the group as we dealt with adversity outside of our control and came back down 3-1 to equalize 3-3 and crawl back on level terms. Both teams had chances at that point to win. IU is the blue blood program in men's soccer and the great thing about my guys is they are not satisfied with tie, but when we look back on tonight it will be a very good result on the road in an incredibly tough to place to play."

Up Next
The Pilots return to Merlo Field for a three-match homestand beginning on Friday at 7 p.m. versus Cal Poly. Portland also welcomes Seton Hall on Monday, Sept. 5 at 5:30 p.m. and then UCLA on Saturday, Sept. 10 at 7 p.m. Tickets for all Pilot home matches are available at PortlandPilots.com/Tickets.
