HOW IT HAPPENED

Following a scoreless first half, the Eagles needed just under five minutes of the second stanza to get on the board. A ball was played into the air just past midfield by the Eagles before Zac McGraw got a head on it. The ball ended up with American and Nick Dimitrijevic sprinted down the field before placing it to the left side of the net for the goal.
In the 61st minute, Army committed a foul inside the box on an attacking player for the Eagles resulting in a penalty kick being awarded to American. Fabio Massaro lined a shot to the left and into the net to give American a 2-0 advantage.
