GAMEDAY MEDIA CENTER HOW IT HAPPENED
  • Gannon had its first scoring opportunity in the 25th minute when Urbana's Harry Tamplin received a red card as he took down Hamza Mourchid (Hombourg-Haut, France/Poncelet) in the box. Mourchid couldn't connect on the penalty kick but Gannon played with a man advantage for the rest of the match.
  • In the 68th minute Hamza Mourchid (Hombourg-Haut, France/Poncelet) bent a free kick towards the goal where a waiting Nick Stephenson (Avon Lake, Ohio/Avon Lake) redirected the ball into the net. However, the referees ruled Stephenson offsides and the goal was negated.
  • Gannon held Urbana without a shot for 90 minutes from the 3:50 to the 93:50 marks in the match.
  • At the 109:30 mark Urbana's Lars Blenckers booted a ball from 30 yards out and bent it over the goalie's head to give the Blue Knights a last second victory.
