OMAHA, Neb. -- The Creighton men's soccer team rallied with goals during the final minute of regulation and closing moments of the first period of extra time to defeat Tulsa 2-1 in overtime on Tuesday night at Morrison Stadium.

The Bluejays improved to 4-3-0 on the year, while the Golden Hurricane fell to 2-3-1.

During the 90th minute, Creighton's Joel Rydstrand sent a corner kick in from the bench side of the field towards the near post. After a Tulsa defender deflected the ball, goalkeeper Michael Kluver recovered the bouncing ball and fired a shot towards the goal before Ricky Lopez-Espin redirected the ball into the back of the net to tie the match at 1-1 with less than 20 seconds to play during regulation.
