Marshall men’s soccer advanced to the sweet sixteen after defeating fourth-seeded Virginia in the second round of the NCAA tournament.

Marshall fell behind 1-0 in the 30th minute after Virginia’s Albin Gashi found the back of the net.

It would be until after halftime in the 66th minute that Marshall’s Matthew Bell found the back of the net to tie the game 1-1. It would make Bell’s 10th goal of the season, just the 11th player in Marshall’s history to do so.

The 1-1 score would last to the end of the regulation, as it would go into overtime.
