UWM uses two first half goals to beat Marquette in sloppy Milwaukee Cup

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (4-4) used two first half goals to down the Golden Eagles (1-6-1) in the 45th installment of the Milwaukee Cup.

The derby was always going to be chippy, but even so, this particular match was even more so than usual. The match featured six yellow cards, 35 fouls and three stoppages due to players receiving medical treatment.

UWM matched the ferocity of the affair with a high press causing an assortment of problems for the Golden Eagles. From intercepted passes to overplayed through-balls and a lack of awareness by more than a few players, Marquette failed to execute its gameplan.
