Temple picks up massive road win in Louisville, face UConn Saturday

With the score tied at 1-1 and time running down on the clock, Temple captain Lukas Fernandes got free in the box and snapped a header into the goal to lift the Owls to a win the hometown announcers on the ACC Network weren’t wrong to call a massive one for the visitors 670 miles from home.

“It was a couple plays before that I was in the box open at the back post and I told my teammate Mikael Borger to look for a cross at the back post because I’d be getting on the end of it and he told me after the game that once he got the ball he was thinking about shooting it but he thought about what I told him and crossed it to me,” Fernandes said.
