DENVER – The University of Denver men's soccer team conceded a 29th minute penalty and couldn't find a second-half equalizer in a 1-0 setback to [24/RV] Oral Roberts on Thursday evening at the Diane Wendt Sports Complex.
Turning Point:
Goalkeeper Will Palmquist came off his line to disrupt an Oral Roberts attack, but Palmquist just missed getting a piece of the ball and referee Art Arustamyan pointed to the spot. Dante Brigida converted the spot kick for his fifth goal of the season.
Inside The Box Score:
Denver outshot the visitors 9-4, and took eight of the nine corner kicks in the match. The 27 fouls without a caution were split 15-12 Denver.
The Pioneers had 64% possession, including 38% in its attacking half.
Up Next:
The University of Denver men's soccer team will close out its four-match homestand on Saturday, hosting this same Oral Roberts program Saturday at 2 p.m. MT. The match will be streamed live on Pioneer Vision.
