Seaway Kickers leave Ottawa with a tie

The Seaway Kickers U14M team left Ottawa tying division rivals the Ottawa Internationals on August 11th at Bruff Park in Ottawa South.

n Scoring opened 14 minutes into the  game as midfielder Jayden Rowe received a pass from the left by forward Kolby Latulippe and drove down the center into Ottawa’s goal, 1-0 Seaway.

n

n The Internationals tied the game at the 26 minute mark with a shot on the left side of Seaway goalkeeper Josh Corput. Corput attempted the save but the shot had too much spin, finding the back of Seaway’s net.

n The Kickers retook the lead at the 34 minute mark after a scrum in front of Ottawa’s goal saw Latulippe’s pass make its way into the bottom right corner of the net off an Internationals defenceman, 2-1 Seaway at half-time.

n

n The Internationals evened the score at the 57 minute mark with a header high into the top corner of the goal, 2-2.

n

n Ottawa kept the pressure on, breaking through Seaway’s defence at the 68 minute mark making it 3-2 for the Internationals.

n

n Midfielder Wyatt Beckstead had a breakaway shot down Ottawa’s right side, tying the game with two minutes left on the clock. Final score, Seaway Kickers 3 – Ottawa Internationals 3.

n

n This is the third time this season these two teams have faced each other, each time the even teams have walked away with a tie.

n

n With five games remaining in the 2016 season, the Kickers have a record of 10 wins, 3 ties and 2 losses.

n

n The team returns to Ottawa August 18th to take on Ottawa City at Sir Robert Borden High School before playing their last home game in Iroquois on August 25th.
