Tigers fall in 2OT versus Union

JACKSON, Tenn. - The Ouachita Tigers men's soccer team lost in double-overtime, 2-1 to Union University on Tuesday night in Jackson, Tennessee. Brandon Hom scored his first goal of the season for Ouachita and Nelson Pacheco recorded a career-high 12 saves.

Ouachita took a 1-0 lead midway through the first half. In the 21st minute, the Tigers were awarded an indirect kick in the Union penalty box. Brandon Hom collected the rebound off Tyler Mouton's blocked shot and drove the ball into the back of the net. Ouachita had eight shots in the first half, seven of which were on goal.

Union had an opportunity to tie the game in the 26th minute when they were awarded a penalty kick. The shot to the lower left corner by Union's Diogo Dias was stopped by the Tigers' Nelson Pacheco. It was one of nine first half saves by the two-time GAC Goalkeeper of the Week. 

The Tiger offense stalled in the second half, as Union's defense kept the Tigers from making a single shot in the second period. On the defensive end, the Tigers withstood 10 second half shots by Union, including two more saves by Pacheco. Union tied the game in the 78th minute when Dias scored off a rebound. 

The score remained tied through the first overtime period. Pacheco recorded save number 12 in the period to extend the game to double overtime. In the second overtime period, Union scored on a penalty kick to win the game 2-1.
