FAU men’s soccer (6-4-2, 1-2-2 C-USA) hosted the Charlotte 49ers (8-4, 3-2 C-USA) in FAU Soccer Stadium on Saturday night. Unfortunately, Charlotte manhandled them with five goals scored.

Similar to how Marshall performed against FAU last week, Charlotte scored multiple goals in the first half. The first goal came from a set piece in the 23rd minute as redshirt senior midfielder Joe Brito delivered an excellent free kick to redshirt senior defender Delasi Batse, who headed the ball into the net.
