It came down to the final minute for Maryland women’s soccer against American University, as the Eagles lobbed the ball forward on a corner for one last attacking chance in the 90th minute. But the Terps held strong as the in-swinging corner sailed behind the net.
The Terps’ attacking options were limited throughout the game, only mustering a total of three shots. But despite constant pressure from the Eagles, Maryland’s back line held its own and forced a 0-0 draw in its season opener.
Most of the action came in the second half when American put continued pressure on the Terps, testing goalkeeper Liz Beardsley on multiple occasions.
