Despite taking a two-goal lead in the second half, the FAU men’s soccer team (0-0-1) settled for a 2-2 draw against Lynn University’s Knights (0-1-1) to start the season on Sunday evening.
The Owls played well in the first half against a very aggressive Lynn side, maintaining a fair amount of possession as well as creating five goal-scoring opportunities. The Knights committed eight fouls in the first 45 minutes and tried to get under their skin.
Sophomore midfielder Pepo Bravo let the intensity get to his head as he committed a reckless challenge towards a Lynn player in the 38th minute, leading to the Owls’ first caution of the game and season.
