Soccer slips again

The loss for the Eagles (0-4-1) is the fourth in a row for the team and was the fifth game of their six-game road trip. Oakland (1-4-0) came out strong winning much of the first half and capitalizing on an EMU foul that created a penalty kick opportunity for midfielder Nicole DeLuca of Oakland to score the only goal at the 31-minute mark. Later during the first half, the Eagles put the pressure on with a near goal off a penalty kick from Stephanie Clarke, which was saved by Oakland goalie Payj O’Shea. Closing the first half, the Eagles displayed their offensive intensity again as they pressured Oakland with many shots but couldn’t find the back of the net.. Coming out of the second half, both teams looked for a new approach.
