MONTREAL - Nicolas Benoit, a defender from Greenfield Park, Que., scored a shorthanded goal in injury time as UQTR rallied to salvage an unlikely 1-1 draw with McGill in men's soccer action at Molson Stadium, Sunday.

It marked the second time in as many home games that the Redmen conceded a costly goal in extra time. The first occurrence was in a 2-1 loss to Montreal, Sept. 10.

Gareth Pugh, a fifth-year senior from Ottawa, had given McGill a 1-0 lead in the 67th minute of play after converting a pass from Sami Obaid and beating Patriotes netminder Roch Goyette of Gatineau, Que.

Six warning cards and one red card were issued in a physical affair that featured 28 fouls, including 18 to UQTR. Patriotes midfielder Daniel Dupont was ejected in the 35th minute of play for incurring his second yellow card of the day.

The result left both teams tied in the Quebec University Soccer League standings with identical 2-1-2 record. McGill returns to action when they host Laval at Molson Stadium, Oct. 2. The Rouge et Or own a 3-2-0 record and are tied with undefeated UQAM (2-0-3) for second place. Montreal sits atop the standings with a 3-1-1 record.
