Game Recap
  • Furman grabbed the early lead with a goal in the 2nd minute thanks to a giveaway by the Eagles in the back
  • Following a free kick to the back post, Jayden Mace headed the ball away and chased it down before it went over the line for a corner
  • When Mace turned up field, Dylan Lane stepped up and won the ball and immediately served it in front of goal
  • Alfredo Diaz-Santillan ran on to the cross unmarked and struck a volley first time past a diving Dean DePinto from the spot
  • The Eagles were able to get the ball forward and into the final third but couldn't connect with anything on frame
  • The best opportunity came in the 21st minute when Nick Guido worked his way free at the top of the box and fired a shot toward the left corner but Furman had 3 defenders in the way to block the shot.
  • Furman took a 2-0 lead in the 25th minute when Diaz-Santillan received a ball into space
  • Diaz-Santillan dribbled toward the box and as he crossed into the area he let a low shot go that was right at DePinto but was misplayed when trying to catch the shot and it rolled into the net
  • Diaz-Santillan completed a hat trick 24 seconds later as Furman won the ball on a tackle outside the box
  • Diaz-Santillan chased the ball down and from a tough angle beat DePinto into the lower far corner for a 3-0 lead
  • Eagles nearly found the back of the net in the 33rd minute as Bryant Jimenez-Pearce corner found Grayson Woodard at the near post and he hit a shot first time on frame that Ben Roberts turned away
  • Woodard headed the rebound back across goal but a Furman defender headed it out for another corner
  • Woodard tried again in the 36th minute as he dribbled through traffic and turned toward the middle of the field as he fired a shot from just outside the box that had pace on it but right at Roberts
  • In the 48th minute Guido earned a corner for the Eagles and off the service redirected the ball on frame twice but it was deflected and then cleared off the line by a Furman defender
  • Eagles drew a free kick in the 54th minute when Woodard chased down a through ball and beat Roberts to the ball outside the 18 and was taken down on a tackle by Roberts
  • Jimenez-Pearce tried to a curl a shot into the left corner but Robert was there to make the save and keep the Eagles off the board
