The Tulsa men's soccer team dropped a 1-0 decision to Louisville in the season opener on Thursday night at the Dr. Mark and Cindy Lynn Stadium in Louisville, Ky. The Golden Hurricane fell to 0-1 on the season, while the Cardinals moved to 1-0 overall.
"I thought we did a good job establishing our game in the first half," Head Coach Tom McIntosh said. "We conceded a couple of good chances in the first half, but we had good control. We needed to put our chances away in the first half, but we didn't get it done. Our front guys will continue to get better. Defensively I thought we played pretty well; our depth was good and we had good performances from guys off the bench. Outside of the result there were a lot of good moments and when you get into these environments you have to put your chances away so if we can improve on that we'll get better moving forward."
Tulsa will return to action on Sunday, August 27 against Texas-Rio Grande Valley beginning at 7:30 pm at the Hurricane Soccer Stadium.
