Cornell soccer 2024

2 minutes into the season and we're looking great, I know we're just playing Marist but this is encouraging already.

2 minutes into the season and we're looking great, I know we're just playing Marist but this is encouraging already.

Johnson scores off of a corner, deflecting a shot from the top of the box. Got the first corner after putting one of the crossbar early. A second goal about 15 minutes into the period on a perfect through ball to Harris who finished clean to the goalie's right. A third on a beautiful individual effort from Ka as he broke a defender's ankles in the box and put the ball right where Harris did inside the post. 3-0 at the half. I think Freidberg had to make one save (or more accurately interfered with a good cross.)

Yikes, Andrew Johnson gets a red. Really poor for one of our best players to do that in a game that we already have won and with a tough game against Georgetown up next that he now won't be able to play in.

[ugarte]

Damn. 5 minutes into the second half, after another good scoring opportunity for the team, Johnson gets a straight red card. Down a man with 40 to go and it's one of our best D men.

~32 minutes left and Marist is unsurprisingly attacking and putting a ton of pressure on. A shot in the box deflected away by a defender and another that deflected straight down from the crossbar that apparently didn't cross the line despite pleading from the Red Foxes.

Good win overall. Looking at the team, I'm very confident in our front and back lines but the midfield doesn't seem to have the depth and talent to match. I'm hopeful for a good season and look forward to seeing how they look against a strong opponent in Georgetown next week.

Cornell ties it up 1-1 with Georgetown in the 47th minute. I would love to stream this but unfortunately I am just having to track this one on live stats.

Once again, Georgetown takes the lead and Cornell levels the score, I'm really missing out on this one.

Tie, we'll take that all day, great start to the season.

Cornell up 3-2 on Penn state in the second half, can't watch again because it's not on espn plus. 2 Alex Harris goals, this would be a big win.

3-2 W, nice result. The rest of the Ivy aside from Penn is looking quite weak though so we will more than likely have to win the Ivy to make the NCAA tourney.

11-minute highlight reel is a nice length.

Cornell received 5 votes in the coaches poll, ranking them 28th. And that poll was not considering their win yesterday.
