Enemy territory, taking on the #7 team in Canada? The UNBC Timberwolves men’s soccer team was more than up to the challenge, topping the dangerous nationally-ranked UBC Thunderbirds 2-1 on Friday in Vancouver.
The TWolves found themselves in a good spot ten minutes later as Canada West leading scorer Michael Henman Streaked in and narrowly missed the net wide on a blast that T-Birds keeper Axel Thulin Lennselius had no chance to touch. In the 38th minute, UNBC found a breakthrough from the hottest player in the country. Michael Henman was sprung by a Koby Greaves ball, stepped inside and beat Lennselius with a low shot from 20 yards out, making it 1-0 UNBC. The goal marked his 16th of the campaign, extending his lead in the conference.
In the second half, the Thunderbirds turned up the pressure, looking to cut into the two-goal deficit, which led to the two sides trading chances. Victory Shumbusho had his shot turned away by Daniel Zadravec, while Loic Benquet made a great run for UNBC but saw his shot deflected just wide of the right post.
