LOUISVILLE, Ky.- Two second-half goals within a span of three minutes doomed the 19th-ranked UIC men's soccer team in a 2-0 loss to Kentucky at the U of L Invitational at Cardinal Park on Friday.
The Flames (0-2-1) and the Wildcats (3-0-0) engaged in a scoreless bout in the match's first 60 minutes until Kentucky's Matt Lodge sent a ball into the center of the box to find the noggin of Brad Walker, who sent a header that flew over the reach of Jovan Bubonja to scrape off the crossbar and into goal.
Two minutes later Chad Hagerty headed a cross from Tyler Burns and found the net for a dagger of a second marker.
The Flames' offense unleashed nine shots, including three on target that were stopped by Dan Williams.
Bubonja made three saves on the day for the Flames.
