MEMPHIS, Tenn. - Nothing separated the Green Bay men's soccer team from Memphis after 81 minutes, but an 82nd-minute penalty was conceded by the Phoenix defense, and the Tiger's Jovan Prado stepped up to score the game-winning goal. The loss is the first of the season for the Phoenix, dropping their record to 3-1-1.
HOW IT HAPPENED
Neither team was able to put substantial pressure on the other in the first half, with Green Bay taking two shots and Memphis taking just four. That pressure ratcheted up in the second half, with the hosts taking eight shots while GB took seven. Tobias Jahn led Green Bay with eight saves. GB recorded two shots on goal compared to nine for the Tigers.
