Soccer's Stein steals show in shootout for Redmen at Nationals
(PHOTO BY ANDREW DOBROWOLSKYJ)
LANGLEY, BC - Forward Michael Stein came off the bench to score the decisive marker in a wild 10-9 penalty-kick shootout as McGill hung on for a 1-0 victory over McMaster in a sudden-death quarter-final at the CIS men's soccer championship tournament in Langley, B.C., Thursday
The Quebec finalist Redmen advance to Friday's evening's semifinal at 6:30 p.m. Pacific against host Trinity Western University, which won their opening round match-up 2-0 over the Cape Breton Capers.
With the Redmen leading 10-9, McGill goalkeeper Jean-Lou Gosselin of Longueuil, Que., made the only save of the penalty-kick session, diving high to his right and batting the ball out of harm's way with both fists to thwart a shot by Chris Succi of Ancaster, Ont., and preserve the victory.
"When you get to penalties, it is just a mental thing," said first-year McGill head coach David Simon. "The game was cautious right from the start. It was a typical first game at Nationals, no one wanted to let a goal in early in the game."
The teams battled through 120 scoreless minutes to force the shootout. McGill connected on all 10 attempts on Marauder 'keeper Matt Grant, getting goals from Sami Obaid, Graeme Tingey, Peter Valente, Louis Fouquet, Jeremy Hurdle, Thomas Lucas, Ryan Lauzon, Axel Dovi and Marc-Andre Maillet before Stein calmly addressed the ball and fired what proved to be the winning marker on a drive to the right side as Grant guessed wrong and dove the other way.
"Our coach kept saying throughout the game 'Believe guys believe"," explained Stein, a 20-year-old biomedical science junior from Toronto. "We played hard, we believed and we won. We're very happy."
The Marauders kept pace with McGill, scoring on their first nine attempts, with goals from Anthony Costa, Monkgogi Moseki, Omar Nakeeb, Marc Reilly, Matt Scudetto, Kyle Grootenboer, Aaron Boothe, Rob Schlosser and Andre Pastoric.
It put a sudden end to the hopes for a Cinderella-type season that McMaster, the OUA champions, had been having, after winning four straight post-season contests in a PK shootout en route to their first conference title since 1992. Relegated to the consolation round, McMaster will play at 1 p.m. on Friday aginst Cape Breton.
