At 90+9 minutes, Acosta (in his half of the field) wanted to send an opponent into the penalty area, but the ball ended up in the goal, after the wind intervened and deceived the goalkeeper Jonathan Sirois. The Americans called the goal “the craziest in history.”
The visitors led 3-1, but Edwards was sent off (’82) and the hosts scored three times before the end of the game.
