Here, we have a case where two teams that haven't scored a goal in about a month (give or take a day or two)--still haven't at the 89-minute mark of this home match for the Apps.

Make that 90 minutes! Overtime!

Golden Goal by senior John Walrath just at the end of the first OT period. Apps win; UNC-A very unhappy about something. Bulldog players went after the officials briefly before order was restored.

What a match this turned out to be. Props to Coach O'Keefe, keeper Jake Chasteen and the App defense for a third-consecutive clean-sheet and the fourth in the past six matches.

Worked to our benefit but I personally have never been a fan of Golden Goal.

Yeah, sudden death losses are emotionally draining. The UNC-A coach called this one "cruel." On the other hand, the "golden" wins are really sweet.

I like it. If you have to wait around for almost two hours before someone finally scores, probably best to call it a day at that point.
