Bulls concede twice in 90 seconds, settle for draw against FIU
It all looked set in stone. USF had the game in its hands, and the score was in its favor by two goals. At least until the 77th minute, when the Bulls’ lead was cut in half. And 90 seconds later, when they lost it entirely. That’s where the score […]
