Maryland men’s soccer entered Tuesday night fresh off its first loss since August, looking to right the ship against the worst team in the Big Ten.
However, it feels like the Terps’ ship is starting to sink. They lost, 3-1, at Rutgers in a disastrous match, in which they gave away two penalties and their head coach was sent off.
Early in the match, Rutgers (5-9-2, 2-6-1 Big Ten) brought the tempo, while Maryland (8-3-5, 5-2-2 Big Ten) slowly settled into the match.
Its first real chance came from a set piece, when Max Rogers whipped in a well-placed cross to freshman Jace Clark at the back post.
