Buffs and Greyhounds Play to Scoreless Draw in Portales

Box Score
 
Season Statistics
 
PORTALES, N.M. – The West Texas A&M men's soccer team played to a 0-0 draw on Sunday afternoon against regional rival Eastern New Mexico at ENMU Soccer Field in Portales, N.M. The Buffs fall to 7-5-1 overall after a contest in which the Buffs were outshot 28-14. The Greyhounds now move to 5-5-3.
 
Sophomore Patrick Satorie and James Gutierrez received the draw on both players' records. WT held an advantage in corner kick opportunities, 7-6, in a match that featured 36 fouls. Leading the way in shots for the Buffs were Christopher Hutton, Axel Insulander, and Brandon Bautista with three each.
 
The Greyhounds were clicking offensively from the beginning in Portales on Sunday afternoon. Within the opening five minutes, they were able to generate two corner kick opportunities leading to a couple of shot attempts by Jose Hernandez, one sent wide followed by another stopped by Satorie, while Satorie also had to make a save on Carlos Viveros.
 
In the following minutes, the Buffs responded with several chances of their own, starting with back-to-back blocked shots by freshman Alex Cervantes in the 10th minute. Freshman Axel Insulander and sophomore Ryan Kennedy then added header attempts in the 13th minute.
 
Satorie would be pressure consistently before the break on Sunday starting near the 30th minute. Jose Hernandez and John Jamison would each get good looks on-goal, but WT's sophomore keeper positioned himself for save on each occasion.
 
Freshman Brandon Bautista would get one final crack at the net for the Buffs before halftime at the 43:38 mark leading to a closing save by Gutierrez.
 
At the break, ENMU led in total shots, 9-6, and also held the advantage in shots-on-goal, 4-3. Cervantes and Insulander led the way for WT with two attempts each.
 
The Greyhounds also started off the second frame with complete control of possession, getting off the first seven shots after play resumed during the first 20 minutes.
 
WT's best chance in the second half came from sophomore Christian Suthers. He placed a good shot-on-goal for the Buffs in the 84th minute from the far left wing, making Gutierrez slide in for a tough save. From that point through the end of regulation, the Greyhounds would occupy their attacking third of the field making Satorie come up with a couple of key stops to send the game into extra time.
 
Senior Christopher Hutton would get two shots at the goal in the first extra period for the Buffs, including the only shot-on-goal overall, but nothing would give for either side after 100 minutes.
 
The Buffs tallied three more attempts in the second overtime period, including a close header by Bautista in the 105th minute that was stopped by Gutierrez. That would be the final real threat in the match that ended in a scoreless draw after 110 minutes of play on the pitch.
 
With the tie, the Buffs fall to 13-6-3 all-time against ENMU.
 
WT will return to action on Wednesday, Oct. 22, as it travels to Laredo, Texas for a rematch with the Dustdevils of Texas A&M-International. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. Live stats and video will be available for the match courtesy of TAMIU Athletics. Links can be found on www.GoBuffsGo.com via the men's soccer schedule page.
