College Park, Md.- - The 2001 season came to a close for the Maryland men's soccer team, as a rebound goal in the 116th minute by Loyola's Juliano Adriano deOliveria advanced the Greyhounds to the third round where they will meet Saint Louis next weekend. The loss drops Maryland to 11-9-1 with Loyola at 17-1-2 for the year.
There was commotion around the final play of the game, as Loyola gained a turnover in the midfield and began its attack. Greyhound midfielder Bill Law and Terps' midfielder Ian Rodway (Columbia, Md.) got tangled up 30 yards away from the goal. DeOliveria's goal came when he was able to sneak a shot off his own rebound past Terrapin keeper Noah Palmer (Williamsburg, Va.) in the second overtime. Law was eventually red carded for kicking Rodway after the goal, but deOliveria's goal stuck and the Greyhounds advanced.
The game, played in heavy rain that would come and go making for sloppy conditions, yielded stats that were even in almost every facet. Loyola held a 5-4 advantage in shots-on-goal, while Maryland took one more shot overall (12-11) and had three more fouls (22-19). Palmer had four saves in the loss, while Loyola keeper Reb Beatty had three in the shutout win. A hard-fought game by both teams, three cards were given including the red card to Law.
