Ducks Fall to No. 1 Stanford 1-0 in OT
EUGENE, Ore. — No. 1 Stanford took advantage of a free kick in the 100th minute and the Cardinal escaped Eugene with a 1-0 overtime win against Oregon Thursday night in front of 775 fans at Pape' Field.
"I'm gutted for our players," said Oregon head coach Kat Mertz. "We played 99 minutes of pure heart and discipline and we committed to the game plan. We created chances. In the 87th minute we might have tucked one away there, but give it to Stanford. They're a great team, they have so many threats. You give them a free kick at the top of the box and Catarina Macario is going to put it away."
