A little bit of everything happened during Thursday evening’s game between NSU and Tarleton State. Everything except for a goal, as NSU (11-1) played Tarleton (1-1-1) to a scoreless draw in a weather-shortened contest at the Tarleton Soccer Complex.
The game had weather delays, power outages and goals wiped away, in a crazy game, one in which saw each team record multiple golden chances to score but could not find the back of the net when it counted.
“It was easily the strangest, weirdest game, in my entire career,” head coach Ian Brophy said. “There was a lightning delay followed by a short restart and then a power outage and I thought we were going to cancel the game at that point. And then we kept playing just to get it cut short by lightning at the end. It was the strangest game I’ve been in during my career, without question.”
