Kentucky (3-0-0) handed No. 7 men’s soccer their first loss of the 2018 season with a decisive 3-0 victory in Lexington. The Wildcats evened the Battle of the Bluegrass on the pitch after a 1-0 loss to women’s soccer last week.
With the defeat, U of L (2-1-0) lost the chance to even the all-time series with UK. Kentucky now leads 15-13-5 in the series dating back to 1979.
Despite holding their own in the midfield with strong possession, Louisville’s offense was nonexistent compared to their rival. The Cats held a 11-9 shot advantage and the Cards only had two shots on goal.
