Coming into the season, the Wisconsin men’s soccer team surely predicted that Indiana would test their defensive endurance and force them to respond on the attack.
If so, they were right.
Ranked No. 4 in the nation, the Indiana Hoosiers welcomed the Badgers to Bloomington on Friday, promptly defeating them 3–1 in a game underscored by a stark shot differential and Wisconsin’s offensive inconsistency.
Following a blistering pace set by the home side to start the match, the Badgers conceded a penalty in just the ninth minute, converted by Hoosier Captain Victor Bezerra.
