Rams fall 1-0 in overtime
MOBILE, Ala. -- No. 21 Mid-Continent College defeated the University
of Mobile Rams 1-0 Saturday night in overtime in a match played at the
UM Soccer Field.
Less than a minute into overtime, Mid-Continent's Willans Ribera volleyed
in a corner kick with the sudden death golden goal. Mid-Continent
had just two shots on goal in the game, both coming in overtime, but
made the most of their two shots.
With three minutes remaining in regulation, the Rams had perhaps their
best scoring opportunity of the night but KK Lima's shot from the center
of the 18-yard box hit the right post and bounced away.
Mobile (1-3-2) outshot Mid-Continent 17-10 in the game and had four
shots on goal to just two for Mid-Continent.
This was Mobile's fourth overtime game of the season as their record
fell to 1-1-2 in overtime games this season.
Mobile will next be in action on Friday, Oct. 7 at home against Notre
Dame College at 5:30 p.m. -30- |
