Kentucky womens soccer (7-4-0) remained winless in the SEC after being defeated 4-1 to Tennessee (6-3-1), a preseason favorite to win the conference, at home on Sunday.
The first 10 minutes of the match resembled a basketball game with both teams attacking with rapid pace, going back and forth down the field.
Tennessee was able to break through with an opener after Ulfa Ulfarsdottir accidentally fired one into her own goal after the Cats were unable to deal with a UT corner in the 12’.
The Volunteers smelled blood in the water and added to their advantage in the 28’ courtesy of Jaida Thomas, who scored off an assist by Claudia Dipasupil to make it 2-0 for the visitors.
