The Blue Demons men’s soccer team (5-5-2) fell 2-0 to the Loyola Ramblers (9-1-0) Tuesday, adding another loss to a now three-game losing skid. Before the match, the Ramblers hadn’t won a game in Wish Field since 2000.
The game also featured the first time brothers Simon Megally, DePaul’ senior midfielder, and Aidan Megally, Loyola freshman midfielder, have played on the same field in an organized soccer match.
The Blue Demons began the year by notching high goal counts in their wins, but in the past 270 minutes, the team has only scored three times. That, coupled with the defensive breakdowns against better teams, has slowly chipped away at the high goal differential DePaul had early on in the season.
