Bryan Cunningham’s<\/a> squad will make its home debut Saturday, hosting 13th-ranked Old Dominion at 7 p.m. at the UCF Soccer Complex.<\/p>\nBehind a pair of goals from Deshorn Brown, the UCF men’s soccer team opened the campaign in fine fashion Friday at FAU Soccer Stadium. Brown notched the game-winner in the 59th minute.<\/p>\n
The Knights won their third-straight season opener. UCF finished with a 13-8 shot advantage, and had seven shots on goal.<\/p>\n
The game-winning tally from Brown, a junior transfer from the University of Mobile who was making his UCF regular-season debut, was a bullet to the top left that beat FAU (0-1) goalkeeper Jeremy Crumpton. Brown’s first goal, and the Knights’ first score of the season, came in the 51st minute when the forward took a cross from Omar Vallejo in the box and beat Crumpton in the lower left corner.<\/p>\n
The Owls tied the contest seven minutes later when Roberto Rivera scored. UCF answered right back as Brown gave the Knights the lead less than two minutes later.<\/p>\n
“Our players were ready to go from the start and we really controlled the entire game,” UCF head coach Bryan Cunningham said. “That is hard to do on the road. I am proud of our attitude. After their goal, we battled right back. That is a credit to our senior leadership and the mentality of the team. It is great to start the season with a good road win.”<\/p>\n
UCF’s Sebastian Evers recorded three saves in the victory. The contest featured a 30-minute delay in the first half due to lightning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After opening the campaign with a 2-1 victory\u00a0Friday at Florida Atlantic, the UCF men’s soccer team has moved to 25th in TopDrawerSoccer.com’s poll.
