Men’s soccer: Badgers stun No. 18 Michigan late, move to third in Big Ten

A double overtime game-winner saw the University of Wisconsin men’s soccer team (7-5-2, 4-2 Big Ten) upset No. 18 Michigan (9-4-1, 3-2-1 Big Ten) at the McClimon Complex Friday.

Freshman Noah Melick was the man to send the fans home happy when his 107th-minute strike sailed past Michigan goalkeeper Henry Mashburn and into the back of the net. The late winner adds to Melick’s fine run of attacking form — his third goal in three games.

The match was tightly contested throughout as Wisconsin battled hard to fight off the attacking advances from their highly ranked opponent.
