Tacoma and Milwaukee delivered wild indoor soccer drama in their Major Arena Soccer League matchup. Tied 6-6 with under 20 seconds left in regulation, controversy erupted when Milwaukee’s goalie was hit with a blue card for allegedly handling the ball outside the box. He argued hard, but the call stood. With just 11 seconds to go, his backup stepped in cold and saved the penalty with a clean block to the chest.
In overtime, the backup goalie, possibly named Auggie Ray, made multiple saves during a Milwaukee power play. Tacoma moved the ball well but couldn’t finish. Then Milwaukee capitalized late when Alvarez, after a lucky bounce during a pass attempt, assisted the game-winner with a smart dish across the box. He celebrated with a signed ball and hugs from teammates.
Things went off the rails right after. Players chirped, an assistant coach stormed in, and a minor scuffle broke out. One coach shoved Movic, a known agitator, sparking a chain reaction. Players from both sides tried to calm it down, but emotions spilled over. Eventually, the assistant coach had to be escorted off, with Movic right behind him, chasing him into the tunnel. It was chaos after a high-stakes ending, fitting for a game full of swings, saves, and jaw-dropping moments.
