Carson High boys’ soccer ties Wooster in dramatic fashion It took until the 70th minute for Carson High boys soccer to get on the board against Wooster on Wednesday. Luis Carrillo deposited the first goal to bring the Senators within one in the game’s final minutes. After playing with 10 men due to a mistake by the center official, the Senators responded with an over-the-top ball to the feet of Emiliano Bravo. Bravo tucked the ball inside the near post before getting dog piled by his teammates on the home sideline. “It’s up there,” said head coach Frank Martinez of the comeback. “This one was pretty sweet because we played horrible in the first half … but we pulled it off.” For Bravo, the moment hadn’t set in postgame. “I don’t even feel here,” said Bravo. “It doesn’t feel real.” For a full recap, follow this link: https://www.nevadaappeal.com/news/2021/sep/15/ten-minutes-chaos/ UP NEXT: Carson (1-2-1) will head to Sparks today looking to take down a Railroaders team that has not lost this season (7-0-1).
