East Grand Forks paid a visit to Fergus Falls for a boys’ soccer contest on Saturday afternoon and the Green Wave returned home with a 3-2 overtime victory over the Otters.

East Grand Forks led 1-0 at the half and added a second half goal, however, the Otters forced OT by scoring twice in the final forty minutes.  Arafat Abdallah and Jose Rodriguez scored the goals. 

“Tough game for our guys, we didn’t play our best and got beat, plain and simple,” stated Fergus Falls Head Coach Steven Ness.  “It’s a mental thing for our players right now and we have to just play and have fun like we did to start the year.”

The Otters have a pair of Central Lakes Conference games this week, traveling to Brainerd on Tuesday and hosting Willmar on Thursday.
