PHOENIX – The 20th-ranked Creighton men's soccer team fell 1-0 to Grand Canyon on Friday night at GCU Stadium in Phoenix.
The Bluejays fell to 1-1-1, while the Lopes improved to 2-0-0.
Grand Canyon converted the game-winning goal during the 81st minute. Creighton goalkeeper Paul Kruse went well off his line and attempted to head a ball from just outside the top of the box away from the Bluejays' defensive zone, but the ball redirected towards the Lopes' Jamie Delor about 17 yards in front of the goal. Delor sent the ball into the back of an empty net with a bicycle kick to convert the first and only goal of the match.
