Men’s Soccer: Owls lose third straight following 2-0 defeat at Memphis

FAU men’s soccer (3-8-3, 2-3-2 AAC) played in Tennessee on Saturday night, losing 2-0 to the University of Memphis Tigers (7-3-4, 4-2-1 AAC).

The first half was relatively quiet for both teams. FAU only recorded two shots while Memphis took three attempts.

Two of the Tigers’ shots were on target. Senior forward Jovan Prado placed his strike in the 29th-minute and freshman forward Alberto Cruz took a direct free kick in the 32nd-minute, but FAU’s fifth-year goalkeeper Neil Strauber kept them out to keep Memphis without a goal at halftime.

FAU found its first shot on goal around the 54-minute mark.
