Maryland men’s soccer’s Max Rogers stood over the ball about 25 yards from the goal line faced with a tall task: rescue a win for his team that had seemingly just blown one.
Rogers stood calm, though, and unleashed a curler that bent right past the Bear’s goalie and into their top right corner of the net.
“As a lefty you kind of dream of that, just a touch off to the right there to get it up and over the wall,” Rogers said. “I saw it and it finally paid off.”
Thanks to his late free kick goal, Maryland could forget the goal they conceded just five minutes prior and secure their second victory of the season, 2-1.
