SPRINGFIELD, MO - Emmerich Hoegg scored with 5:16 remaining, lifting host Missouri State (4-2-1, 1-0-0 MVC) to a 2-1 Missouri Valley Conference men's soccer victory against Bradley (2-6-1, 0-2-0 MVC) Saturday night at Allison South Stadium.
The loss snaps Bradley's 3-game Valley road unbeaten streak dating back to last season and keeps the Braves winless overall on the road this season and came with a bit of controversy. Bradley was awarded a penalty kick in the 73rd minute when Missouri State's Stuart Wilkin was whistled for a handball in the box. Richard Olson, who scored a tying goal in the 30th minute earlier in the match, converted the resulting penalty kick, but referee Doug Wolff ruled the PK did not count as Bradley had a player in the box too early.
