Huskies Come Back Three Times To Draw Rutgers, 4-4

BROOKLINE, Mass. – In their second-to-last home game of the regular season, the Northeastern Huskies (3-6-6) drew 4-4 with Rutgers (5-6-3) on a rainy Saturday afternoon at Parsons Field.
 
Tied 1-1 at halftime, the game saw a total of six goals in the final 30 minutes of play, including a game-tying Fraser Brown header in the 88th minute to finish the game level. Three Huskies combined to score Northeastern's four goals, led by Tobias Wangerud notching his second and third goals of the year, and Mathias Hille getting his second career goal.
 
  • Rutgers opened the scoring in the 26th minute on a corner kick that was clear by the Huskies but fell to a Scarlet Knights shooter at the top of the box.
  • Wangerud notched his first of the game with just 10 seconds left in the first half. Federico Tellez started the play passing into the box to Zach Sauer, who sent it back across to Wangerud in front of the net. Wangerud deflected the pass into the net as he ran past the keeper to equalize at 1-1.
  • The Scarlet Knights went ahead again in the 62nd minute on a cross from the right to lead 2-1.
  • Wangerud once again drew the game level with a through ball from Fabrizio Cubeddu that hit the inside of a defender's leg and settled to Wangerud who fired it home.
  • The Huskies took their first lead of the game in the 78th minute when Tellez hit a corner kick that deflected back to him – he sent in the rebound on a high cross that met the head of Mathias Hille who headed it down and into the left corner of the net.
  • Rutgers tallied two goals in the 80th and 83rd minutes to retake the lead on a shot from the top of the box and a long free kick that was headed over the defense.
  • With the game winding down, a cross into the box was punched away by the Rutgers keeper, but Sebastian Restrepo was able to collect it and cross to the right where Fraser Brown tipped the ball in off the back of his head for the final score line of 4-4.
  • This is the second game of the season in which Northeastern has tallied four goals.
  • Brown's goal was his team-leading fifth of the season – Tellez collects his ninth and tenth assists of the year, putting him up to 27 career helpers, which puts him in third all-time in program history.
 
The Huskies head back on the road for one more game this Tuesday, October 24th at Merrimack before returning home next Saturday to face Hofstra on Senior Night, October 28th. Tuesday's game kicks off at 7 p.m. on NEC Front Row – next Saturday's is at 6 p.m. on FloFC.
