Monroe Boys' soccer were defeated by two late goals in the first round of championship bracket play in the SEC Red Division playoffs on Thursday night.
The game was a back and forth contest with periods of possession and attacking play by both sides. Monroe had the upper hand in the closing stages with a header by Vishwas Joshi saved and an errant back pass by the Hornets defense shaving the post with the keeper stranded. From the resulting corner Saline broke away and a robust shoulder to shoulder challenge in the box was deemed a penalty by the referee. Monroe pushed Teegan Simmons forward and played with three defenders for the remaining five minutes. Another breakaway gave the hosts a lopsided two goal margin of victory in the final seconds.
An outstanding performance by the Trojans in every department.
