ANN ARBOR, Mich. -- - Facing a two-goal deficit in the first half, the Wisconsin men's soccer team rallied and grinded out a draw against Michigan with a 3-3 final score in Ann Arbor on Saturday.
While the Badgers (2-7-1, 1-1-1 Big Ten) got on the board first thanks to a goal from Tom Barlow in the 15th minute, the Wolverines (5-2-2, 2-0-2) responded with three straight goals over a six minute period to take a 3-1 lead.
Christopher Mueller gave Wisconsin hope heading into the locker room at halftime, as the sophomore scored just before the break on a free kick to cut into Michigan's lead and make it only a one-goal game.
Nick Jones scored the game-tying goal in the 47th minute of the second half.
| Fast Facts | | • Wisconsin is unbeaten in its last three road games (2-0-1), including two Big Ten games. | | • Tom Barlow has scored a goal in two of the last three games. | | • UW earned its first point against Michigan since 2012. UM entered having won three straight in the series. | |
"Michigan is a good team and a very talented one at that," UW head coach John Trask said. "There was a six-minute period where we let our guard down in the first half and it cost us early on. Still, I was pleased with the effort from the guys to fight back and get a point on the road."
After a six-goal outburst in the first 48 minutes, both defenses clamped down the rest of the way and battled through two overtime periods before ending in a tie.
Both overtime periods were dominated by Michigan offensively, as UM recorded eight shots over the last two 10-minute periods. The Badgers held on however, as goalkeeper Adrian Remeniuk finished with six saves for UW.
While outshot by a 23-10 margin, Wisconsin held on for the draw and is now unbeaten in its last three road games (2-0-1), which includes a pair of Big Ten contests.
"There were a lot of really good performances today. Tom Barlow, Christopher Mueller and Nick Jones obviously scored goals, but I felt that Carl Schneider played an excellent game defensively. The work that Alex Masbruch put in against their forward was absolutely massive, too. This is a good point to get on the road. Now, we need to continue to learn and grow from it."
The Badgers return home for a two-game homestand, beginning with a game against in-state rival Marquette on Oct. 7 at the McClimon Complex.
