In front of 1,500+ boisterous fans at Yurcak Field on a cool, pleasant November evening, the second-seeded Scarlet Knights (9-4-6, 5-2-2) faced off against the third-seed Ohio State Buckeyes (10-3-5, 4-3-2) in the second round of the 2022 B1G Men’s Soccer Tournament.
The Knights advanced to the second round after a first round victory over seventh-seed Wisconsin last Friday at Yurcak Field, prevailing 5-4 on penalty kicks after the teams played a scoreless regulation and 20-minute overtime period.
1st Half
The first half of play was chippy and physical, with a couple dust ups in which referee Dimitar Chavdarov struggled to get control of the match.
