Duke Women's Soccer 2024

Game set match
3-0 the final
20-6 advantage in shots
8-1 SOG
Nebraska was the preseason #6 team in the country…now they have 2 losses

Too bad this game was on Big10+
 
I was advised that we not only made personnel changes, we made a formation change. My understanding is that we switched to a 3-5-2. Kudos to Church. Oliaro is such an impactful player…physicality, athleticism, touch, vision. Hase just sees the field beautifully. Walters gives us speed up top that we lacked since Cooper left. This performance and the changes made bode well in the near term.
 
As if to underscore the point that defensive lapses can happen at all levels, this morning's Premier League games have seen some absolute howlers by goalkeepers, taking a safe backpass but playing it with a poor touch that allows an onrushing attacker to say "thanks" and score.
 
DWSOC off to a 2-0 lead over UNCW with 1st half goals by Rader (PK) and Roller. Duke leads 13-1 in shots.

Edit: Lynch makes it 3-0 now with 11 min to go in 1H. Three goals in 4 minutes.

I was following the score on the ticker and it showed 0-0 around 21 minutes in. Next time it said 3-0 Duke and I thought maybe the previous score was wrong…
 
2 random facts
1) we scored 15 goals all season last year; we have scored 7 in the past 2 games
2) the last time we scored 4 in a game was in 2022, first round of NCAA Tournament win over Radford
