Neither Arizona nor UC Irvine found the back of the net Friday, as the teams battled to a 0-0 draw in double overtime on a warm, humid night in Tucson.
“Both teams were really up for the fight and it was a battle and it was physical,” UA head coach Tony Amato said. “Neither team really found any attacking combinations or really connected in any sort of way.
“I thought whoever either forced someone into a mistake or if somebody really had a moment of quality, that’s how the game was going to be won, and it just didn’t come about.
