The No. 25 Notre Dame men’s soccer team won a penalty kick shootout, 4-3, against No. 7 Louisville in the semifinals of the BIG EAST Championship on Friday evening at Dick Dlesk Soccer Stadium. The match ended as a scoreless draw following regulation and two overtime periods.
The Fighting Irish (10-7-3), the No. 2 seed from the Blue Division, now will face St. John’s, the second seed from the Red Division, in the league title game on Sunday at 12 noon (ET). Louisville (13-2-4) was the top seed from the Red Division.
Notre Dame missed its first penalty kick attempt, yet made the next four while the decisive save was made by Irish senior goalkeeper Philip Tuttle (Hooksett, N.H./Brewster Academy) in the final try from Louisville. Tuttle came up big for the Irish as he made six saves on the night.
