HUNTINGTON, Ind. – The University of Michigan-Dearborn (0-1-1) men's soccer team traveled to Indiana to take on the Huntington Foresters (1-0-3) in a non-conference matchup at King Stadium. The Wolverines walked away with a 1-1 draw after an 85th-minute equalizer. 

 

Both teams were held scoreless in an uneventful first half. The Wolverines were outshot 7-3 by the Foresters, but UM-Dearborn goalkeeper Elijah Burlak made three critical saves to preserve the 0-0 tie going into the break. 

 

After the intermission, both teams began to understand the game's pace, and things started to open up in the offensive zone. The Wolverines would concede the first goal, but it would not come off of the boot of a Forester. Huntington's lone goal came as an own goal in the 78th minute. 


The Wolverines would not be denied as they found the equalizer seven minutes later. Mohammed Ibrahim was set up by Christian Cole, giving the Wolverines a tie in their first road contest of the season.
