What a great setup by UFO and Mo Zakyi to Mertz. 1-1 with 37 minutes left to play.
We head to OT, thanks to this second half goal from Robbie Mertz!#GoBlue pic.twitter.com/QNUnaLPFOP

Funnest kind. Back in the day, I slide tackled this kid once in the pouring rain and he went rolling through a huge puddle on the field and water shot up everywhere. It was the coolest thing I'd ever done.

to see the equalizer. Thanks.

They push and hack and then fake for the calls. I hate that part of soccer.

Becomes more and more evident that U-M Soccer Stadium is the best facility in the B1G.
Indiana is arguably the best program historically and their stadium is crappy compared to ours.
September 13th, 2017 at 9:26 PM ^
paid attention to soccer.

doesn't have a roof, pretty brick design? Its functional, holds more people and has more history in 3 feet of that outer track than UM's entire South Athletic complex at the moment.

I think the pitch was in worse shape than what my daughters used to play on as 5 year olds when they were just learning to play. It was horrendous on an objective scale without making a comparison to any other school.

Headed to OT.
Score is 1-1.

WD, what's the overtime setup for NCAA soccer? 2 10-minute halves? Also, is it sudden death or full-time, and can the game end in a tie? Thanks
September 13th, 2017 at 9:49 PM ^
OT = 10 minutes
2OT = 10 minutes
If no goal after the second OT, it's a tie and both teams get a point in the B1G standings.

Thanks!

2OT
Michigan had great push the first 5 minutes of the first OT. Second 5 minutes was a different story.
Atuahene is still out..........worriesome.

Pretty crazy sequence.
Michigan almost gets the W on an Indiana own goal. And then Indiana gets a free kick at the top of the box.
#18 Michigan ties #1 Indiana, 1-1 in 2OT.
First non-loss against a #1 ranked team in the program's 18 year history.
Michigan moves to 4-0-2 and will face #6 MSU at U-M Soccer Stadium on Sunday.
Pretty nice result, honestly. Stole 1 point is what we did tonight. A win on Sunday would be a program direction-changing win after getting this result tonight.

A huge brain fart on defense is what allowed Indiana to escape with a tie. This could've been a shutout win.
This was basically the soccer version of the JT Floyd play in 2010
The OT winless streak continues, unfortunately.
We are an unbelievable, unlucky, mind-blowing 0-5-10 in our last 15 OT games going back to the 2015 season.

A draw against the #1 team is a win in my book. Not a defeat with dignity, but I'll take this any day of the week.

I'm off on Sunday, might have to come out and support the boys!
Good job!
Kick States a**!

I've lived in Bloomington five years now. Am glad to have finally attended one of these games. Layered elsewhere, however, is a sense of unspeakable lameness for having attended without bothering to check the teams' national ranks. IU is #1? Knowing that now, I'll say they sure didn't look any amount superior to Michigan. The blue jerseys seemed to cumulatively possess the ball 2-3x as much as the white ones.

Maryland had a game vs Indiana the other night on BTN and the stadium was packed. I love to see the non-revenue sports getting some good crowds, TV coverage and publicity. There's so much other soccer out there available for viewing but I think the NCAA soccer product is getting better. Glad to see Michigan is doing so well - gonna tune in a lot this season!

The top teams in the Big Ten are (in no particular order) Indiana, Maryland, Michigan State. Michigan is probablly at the top of the pack behind them. But if Michigan can get the win against MSU, the conference championship should be decided in the last game of the season, with Michigan playing at Maryland.

Will ever feel. Game against msu next is huge. Got some great young talent on this team. Let's make it a memorable season on the pitch.
GO BLUE!!
