#21 Luther falls to #8 Gusties

ST. PETER, MINN. – In a tough top-25 road contest the Norse fell short of defeating Gustavus Adolphus 2-1.
 
LATE SECOND HALF FALTER
On a sunny but chilly fall day two top-25 teams ranked in the most recent poll from the United Soccer Coaches poll from last week took the field. The Norse would fire away shots in the early minutes of play. The Gusites would be the first to take a lead in the 13th minute off of a free kick and a header from Raphael Cattelin. Luther however doesn't like to stay behind for long as three minutes later the equalizer happened. Marcos Vila (Madrid, Spain/I.E.S San Fernando) capitalized on a back pass to the Gustie goalkeeper tying the game at 1.
 
Out of the break the game remained at 1-1 for the next twenty minutes. But a foul called on the Norse in the box would give the Gusties a penalty kick. Otis Johnson got the Luther goalkeeper to go the other way giving Gustavus a 2-1 lead. The Norse tried to come up with a late game goal but their luck would run out as time expired. Gusties barley out shot the Norse 15-14 but both teams had eight shots on goal.
 
TOP NORSE
  • Fifth Year Marcos Vila (Madrid, Spain/I.E.S San Fernando) reached 10 goals on the season which leads the team. His career total is now 46 which puts him in fourth on the career goals all-time list.
UP NEXT
