COLUMBIA, Ky. - The No. 11-ranked Lindsey Wilson men's soccer team welcome Bethel (Tenn.) for a Mid-South conference semifinals matchup at 6 p.m. CT on Thursday at Ray Wells Field inside Walter S. Reuling Stadium. 

The Blue Raiders (9-6-1, 4-1-1 MSC) are coming off a victory over Georgetown (Ky.), toppling the Tigers 6-0. Tobias Lopez scored two goals, Denilson Macon notched a goal and two assists, while Renny Caicedo and Andrew Tomlinson chipped in a goal each. 

Goalkeeper Zahir Garcia added two saves and a shutout in the quarterfinal win. Garcia is now tied for third all-time in single season saves in school history with 81, tying David Coffey's 2019 mark. 

The Wildcats (7-4-2, 3-2-1 MSC) are coming off a thrilling 4-3 comeback victory over Campbellsville (Ky.) in double overtime. The Wildcats were down 3-1 with less than 20 minutes left to play and scored two goals to take the Tigers to overtime before Victor Vilaca Andrade Cardoso ended the game in the 106th minute. Cardoso has four goals and a team high three assists this season. Luiz Antonio Costa Lima leads the Wildcats in goals with eight and points with 18. 

In goal for Bethel is Mauricio Gonzalez De Leon. The Freshman from Mexico made his debut against Lindsey Wilson and since then he has recorded 20 saves. 

The last time these two teams faced off was in the regular season on September 17 in McKenzie, Tennessee where the Wildcats won 2-1. The Blue Raiders only recorded one shot in the second half and Costa Lima's goal in the 71st minute propelled the Wildcats. The Blue Raiders currently hold a three-game winning streak against the Wildcats at home. 

The winner of the match will face the winner of Cumberlands (Ky.) vs Cumberland (Tenn.). The Blue Raiders would travel to Lebanon, Tennessee for the MSC final with a Cumberland victory, but would host Cumberlands (Ky.) if the Patriots win.
