Men's Soccer - SMU vs. Marshall

[DanFreibergerForHeisman]

Nelson breaks up what sounded like a great opportunity for Marshall with around 3 minutes left.

Sounded like Derschang almost scored from a Castillo throw in with a minute left.

1-1 end of regulation. Headed to OT.

4 minutes left in the first OT. Play sounds pretty even.

Marshall showing the quality of their education by having GameTracker 5 minutes off as if the 5 minute break between regulation and OT is part of the match.

[DanFreibergerForHeisman]

Heading to 2 OT. SMU was in total control of the last portion of the first OT.

[DanFreibergerForHeisman]

OT 2 underway. Come on, Mustangs!

Obviously the chances of SMU Soccer ever being on Dallas radio are slim and none - but if it ever happens I hope our announcers are as biased as these dudes.

Three minutes left...

[DanFreibergerForHeisman]

Castillo and Derschang both with nice chances in the last minute.

Ibarra with a big save on the other end.

[DanFreibergerForHeisman]

Ivo with a free kick with 10 seconds left but to no avail...

Final 1-1.

Final stats:

Shots: SMU 13, Marshall 15
Shots on goal: SMU 8, Marshall 5
Corners: SMU 4, Marshall 2
Fouls: SMU 4, Marshall 13
Yellows: SMU 2, Marshall 3

Nice to see Derschang get 70 minutes. Ibarra, Hickey, Simmons, de Almeida, and Nelson all play the full 110 minutes.

Top of the C-USA standings (assuming Memphis holds on against FIU):

1. 3-0-1 10 Marshall
2. 3-0-0 9 South Carolina
3. 2-0-0 6 UCF
4. 1-1-1 4 SMU
5. 1-1-0 3 UAB
6. 1-2-0 3 Memphis
6. 1-2-0 3 FIU

SMU definitely needed the win tonight - but a point on the road is never bad.

Thanks for the updates!
Glad Derschang is back, although I bet it takes a while before he feels 100 per cent.
