Ottawa, ON – Ottawa Fury once again undefeated in this 2019 USL tournament, this afternoon the group of Nikola Popovic rescued a point facing the two-time Champion of the league.
The Ontario team was looking to score consistently without success in the first 45 minutes, in the meantime Louisville was doing a perfect defense until minute 56′, with a penalty shot taken by Wal Fall, the Canadian were now up 1-0, but not indefinitely.
Just a little bit more then 10 minutes later, the representatives of Kentucky equalized the game with Rasmussen.
After this latest goal, both teams took on a more defensive stride and trying to keep the board with those digits until the very last second of the encounter.
It was a very good experience for all the family’s in attendance at TD Place who happened to be accompanied by their fury family member (dogs of all types) in this special edition.
